oronado by Meade SolarMax II 60mm Solar Telescope with RichView system. Includes 15mm Blocking Filter. 60mm diameter Solar Telescope with sub 0.7 angstrom bandwidth filtering for observation of surface detail and prominences on the Sun in hydrogen-alpha (Ha) light.  Used around the world by serious solar enthusiasts and professional research facilities alike for observation of surface detail and prominences on the Sun in hydrogen-alpha (Ha) light. Powerful but very portable, this high resolution Solar Telescope offers dedicated visual observation of the Sun as well as high quality imaging.

The stunning bright red views through a Coronado Ha telescope display astounding surface and limb detail especially when the Sun is in an active phase. The sun is now heading for Solar Maximum, when activity will be at it's best. Don't miss out!!  This very high quality 60mm personal solar observatory features an 400mm focal length, f/6.6 focal ratio. Includes mounting rings, Cemax 25mm eyepiece, Sol Ranger solar finder and carry case.

I own the 60mm BF5 version. I am quite pleased with it's performance. I use a William Optics binoviewer with a 2x barlow screwed on the end and if the seeing is decent, it works great. You would want to use low power eyepieces of course. I use two 32mm plossl's. Viewing the sun with both eyes is awesome!
