Review Summary
The Orion VersaGo 80ST Altazimuth Refractor Telescope with VersaGo mount's one-arm, machined aluminum head has Teflon bearings that glide the scope to your target effortlessly. Sporting fully multi-coated 80mm objective and short 400mm focal length (f/5.0) this scope delivers gorgeously bright and sharp images.
With its 90° mirror star diagonal, two wide-field Expanse eyepieces (20mm and 9mm) and 8x40 finder scope, this ST80 edition makes for rewarding deep-sky treasure hunting and Moon gazing. And with the uncomplicated VersaGo mount, you can be set up in less than a minute! A breakthrough in quality, ease of use and grab-and-go convenience, the VersaGo lets you guide your telescope with unprecedented single-control ease.
In addition to super-smooth operation, you have a full range of motion from horizon to zenith with telescopes up to 15 lbs and 6" in diameter. And unlike similar mounts you may have seen, the VersaGo's offset mounting arm perfectly balances the telescope over the center of the mount for maximum stability and smoother operation. With an optical tube that measures only 15-1/2" this versatile setup is delightfully portable for those spur-of-the-moment observing expeditions.
