Description

iOptron 80mm refractor telescope with solar filter (S80) combines iOptron 80mm f/5 achromatic refracting telescope and a durable SolarLite solar filter from Thousand Oaks. The S80 provides a safer view of the solar photosphere. Watching sunspots change and travels across the disk of sun day by day.

With fully multi-coated air-spaced doublet optics, the S80 reveals brighter and sharper images. Explore The 80mm objective lens and short 400mm (f/5.0) focal length are perfect for taking in wide swaths of the heavens, making it ideal for larger deep-sky objects. You’ll see spectacular star clusters, wispy nebulas, and expansive galaxies with this telescope, but it also excels at viewing objects in our solar system. Enjoy experiencing the phases of the Moon and tracking the motions of the planets with crisp views of Saturn’s rings and Jupiter’s moons, as well as the birds and other land objects.

The 80mm solar scope is an excellent mate for iOptron’s light travel mount, such as The SkyHunter^TM EQ/AA and SmartEQ^TM equatorial goto telescope mounts.
