The Sky-Watcher Maksutov-Cassegrains are the ultimate take-anywhere telescopes. They are also ideal if working space is limited. Despite their small dimensions they pack a powerful punch. Their High-Resolution, diffraction limited optical systems are multi-coated to maximize contrast and image sharpness. The Skymax Maksutovs come in apertures of 90mm, 102mm and 127mm, and are available complete with equatorial mounts and tripods. Whether your requirement is for terrestrial or astronomical use, these compact scopes are the perfect companion. Tube material: Aluminium.
The Vixen SXW or “Sphinx” mount and Star Book hand controller are the latest advance in go-to telescope technology from one of the pioneers in computerized telescopes (Vixen’s first Sky Sensor go-to computer drive was introduced in 1984!) Instead of the limited two-line text display used in other go-to scopes hand controls, the unique Star Book hand control has a large full-color liquid crystal star chart, with an easy to read control function display. The control function display is integrated with a uniquely intuitive and simple ten-button control system. Its ease of use makes the 20-button hand controls used on other scopes – with their cryptic abbreviations and involved menus to memorize – look downright old-fashioned. The Star Book hand controller makes Sphinx go-to astronomy amazingly easy to master for observers of almost any age and experience level. The Sphinx mount was recognized by Sky & Telescope magazine as a “Hot Product of 2004.”     ON SALE NOW $3,550
