saxon 12715 Observatory Cassegrain Telescope
Everyone loves a good mix and match so we can't see a reason why it doesn't apply to telescopes as well. Grab the saxon 127/1500 Observatory Cassegrain Telescope and mount it with an existing (or new) mount and tripod.
This telescope comes with the same great features as its 12715EQ counterpart, with an aperture of 127mm and a focal length of 1500mm. The compact and portable tube design means it's easy to store away when you're not outdoors observing planets and star clusters at night and terrestrial objects during the day.
Intermediate and advanced observers alike will enjoy the flexibility the saxon 12715 Observatory Cassegrain Telescope provides.
Small in size but large in power, the saxon 127/1500 Observatory Cassegrain Telescope is a great scope for intermediate to advanced observers.
The telescope's high-resolution, diffraction-limited optical systems promises bright, crisp views of your objects. Combined with the scope's aperture of 127mm and focal length of 1500mm, you'll be out on the field observing deep sky objects in a jiffy!
It's easy to switch and change your mount and tripod for different viewing purposes, and the compact size of the scope makes it easy to put away between uses. If you're after views of nature or scenery, you'll want to mount this scope on an Alt-Azimuth mount. For astronomers, we'd recommend the German Equatorial or GoTo mount.
