DayStar solar telescope ST 60/930 SolarScout SS60-ds H-Alpha OTA

This telescope for observing the sun in H-alpha light leaves nothing to be desired. Daystar, the solar telescope specialist, combines an H-alpha filter with a multi-coated achromatic doublet:

    Lightweight tube: You don't need an expensive astronomical mount!
    Helical focusing: Focusing is done using a non-slip ring over the distance from the front lens. This means that the camera or eyepiece does not move when focusing and heavy accessories cannot slip.
    Integrated sun finder: A real help for safely pointing the telescope at the sun.

The SolarScout SS60-DS is a particularly affordable H-alpha telescope with special features:

    Achromatic doublet: The high-quality refractor with a 60 millimeter lens diameter ensures high contrast and resolution! The connection is equally suitable for an astronomical mount and a photo tripod.
    Helical focusing: Focusing is done using a non-slip ring that adjusts the distance to the front lens. This type of focusing is particularly sensitive and ensures that even heavy accessories cannot slip through. When you turn the focusing wheel, the accessories do not rotate.
    Integrated sun finder: A real help for safely pointing the telescope at the sun.

The Solar Scout solar telescope is equipped with the already proven QUARK H-alpha filter. What's special about it. The exact distance in the Etalon filter QUARK is regulated via an integrated heater using thermal expansion. This means the filter always remains optimally adjusted. A mini USB cable is included in the delivery for the necessary power supply.
