Bresser Classic 70/350 18-140x70 Product description

  1. Achromatic Refractor Design: The Classic 70/350 is an achromatic refractor telescope, meaning it uses objective lenses to bend and focus light. This design is highly valued for producing crisp, high-contrast images, making it excellent for observing the Moon, planets, and even terrestrial objects.

  2. Compact and Portable: With a short 350mm focal length and lightweight construction, this telescope is incredibly portable and easy to set up, ideal for beginners, young enthusiasts, or those with limited space. Its compact form factory, including the alt-azimuth mount, allows for quick observation sessions.

  3. Versatile Magnification: Equipped with 25mm and 10mm Kellner eyepieces and a 3x Barlow lens, the Classic 70/350 offers a wide magnification range from 14x to 105x. This versatility allows users to switch between wide-field views and detailed close-ups, making it suitable for various observing targets.

  4. Dual-Purpose Viewing: The included 90-degree erecting prism diagonal corrects the image orientation, making this telescope perfect for both astronomical viewing and terrestrial observations. Enjoy clear views of the night sky or use it to observe wildlife, landscapes, or distant landmarks during the day.
