Celestron

A step up in power and accessories from the smaller 50mm model, the PowerSeeker 60 60mm f/12 AZ Refractor Telescope from Celestron is a starter scope designed to introduce viewers to astronomy by giving them a complete setup for viewing the moon, planets, and meteor showers. Outfitted with a 1.25" rack-and-pinion focuser, it will accept the most popular-sized eyepieces and accessories in addition to the two eyepieces, diagonal, and Barlow lens that comes with it.The 90 diagonal corrects the image horizontally and vertically to use the scope as a spotter on the land and puts the user's head in a more comfortable position, especially when the scope is aimed high in the sky. A 3x Barlow lens is included and effectively triples the magnification of any eyepiece used with it for a wider range of observing possibilities. An adjustable height aluminum tripod provides a stable platform for any observations.Optical Tube 60mm aperture700mm focal lengthf/12 focal ratioRefractor-style optical designAnti-reflection fully coated optics improves light transmission, color rendition, sharpness, and contrastResolution: 2.31 arc sec, Raleigh; 1.93 arc sec, Dawes1.25" rack-and-pinion focuserMount and Tripod Manual alt-az mount with altitude and azimuth locks2-Stage adjustable height aluminum tripodTray holds accessories such asEyepieces and Accessories Eyepieces:1.25" diameter barrel20mm eyepiece yields 35x magnification, 42 apparent angle of view, 61' field of view at 1000 yards4mm eyepiece yields 175x magnificationBarlow lens:3x magnification effectively triples the power of each eyepiece for wider viewing optionsDiagonal:90 angle provides a more comfortable viewing positionIntegrated erecting prism corrects image for land use5x24 Finderscope5x magnification produces a wide field of view to make finding subjects easy and star-hopping navigation fasterStraight-through viewingIncludes mounting bracket
