SKY WATCHER
This instrument offers an incredible aperture-to-price ratio and makes it a very tempting alternative to similarly priced but smaller aperture equatorially mounted telescopes. The Dobsonian mount, popularised by John Dobson in the late 1970's, is a very simple but effective method of mounting a Newtonian Reflector, based on the alt-azimuth principle. Fast and easy to setup, the Dobsonian mount consists of a box-type mounting which allows the telescope to pivot in altitude, while the box itself is rotated on a base in azimuth. The secret of the design is to balance the optical tube so that it moves when nudged but stays in position when not. The mount is designed to be driven by hand as opposed to motors or slow-motion controls, and as such makes it more suitable for use at low to medium magnifications and for deep sky observations.
LEE SAYS: This large aperture refracting telescope comes on a sturdy mount that will give fantastic high contrast views of the Moon and Planets.
Price: £369.00 (Including VAT at 17.5%)
LEE SAYS: The 8" reflector telescope is the workhorse of many amateur astronomers, and this telescope has high quality optics and comes on a very sturdy equatorial mount giving fantastic bright clear views of the Solar system and deep space objects.

LEE SAYS: This is a 5" telescope is ideal for viewing Solar system objects and also deep space objects and is very compact due to its high quality Schmidt Cassegrain optical design. It comes on a sturdy mount and tripod.
