Baader SkySurfer V - an ultimate red dot finder and sun seeker in one
The SkySurfer V comes from the military sector, but it has been optimized for "peaceful" astronomical use. What remains is the robust workmanship. The SkySurfer V is a purchase for the entire life. The viewfinder offers the following advantages and features:

• All glass surfaces are anti-reflective and equipped with an astro-coating for maximum light transmission. The sky is hardly darkened, all stars are also visible through the viewfinder.
• The red dot finder can be used during daytime observation and night observation. The brightness of the red light point can be adjusted in 9 levels. So it is bright enough for the day and does not dazzle at night.
• All optical surfaces are made of high-quality glass and are sealed watertight with O-rings.
• The viewfinder can be adjusted parallel to the telescope using large adjusting screws. The adjustment screws are hidden under cover caps. This prevents unintentional misalignment.
• The viewfinder can be converted into a full sun seeker within seconds. He does not need to be taken off. The front cover contains a small hole. Through this, the sun is projected onto the small Plexiglas surface. If the small solar disk is in the middle, you have the sun in the field of view even in the telescope at low magnification. Please make sure that you have previously protected the telescope with a lens sun filter and make sure before the observation that the filter fits well. Always observe the safety instructions for observing the sun on your telescope.
