Brilliant find, excellent value
Amazing value for money - brilliant once set up well - light enough to carry anywhere and cheap enough to not be worried about while doing so - yet built decently enough to do the job Tripod was not at all bad for something included at this price point, would def recommend to friends
The US Army 60mm Refractor Telescope combines power and portability in a precision-built and rugged design. It features a 60mm objective lens with a 300mm focal length and a f/5 focal ratio. This telescope also has anti-reflection, fully multi-coated optics: they give you richer, clearer images by transmitting more light to the scope. And with the telescope’s exceptional focal length and wide eyepiece magnification range, you can see a variety of faraway objects and entities instantly. 8mm and 20mm eyepieces are included with 37.5x and 15x magnification, respectively. Plus, this refractor telescope features highly robust aluminum which makes it lightweight for easier transportation. It even has an intuitive Easy Mount that beginners and experts will find simple to use. Other features include a 90° star diagonal, a control arm on the scope’s Alt-Az mount, and a three-section tripod with an accessory tray.
