It features a large 260mm aperture catadioptric design, and is a true all-purpose telescope for observation and photography applications.

AXJ Mount
The AXJ mount, equipped VPEC periodic correction, provides precise tracking as accurate as ±4 arcseconds or less. The VPEC works automatically as you use the AXJ mount. The belt drive system reduces backlash dramatically and makes the motor noise quieter. The AXJ mount carries a maximum loading weight of 48 pounds.
STAR BOOK TEN
The STAR BOOK TEN features the intuitive 'Star-Chart Go-To' system with a high-definition color LCD. The position of the telescope, the target and other useful information are displayed on the screen in detail. The night vision feature illuminates the whole screen in red, if applied, and will limit the brightness to the observer's eyes.
AXD-TR102 Tripod
The ASG CB90 is a compact and lightweight tripod which is constructed of durable carbon fiber legs. The tripod head, leg extensions, and leg brace provide a highly stable platform for the AXJ mount.
