Technical Details

  • Advanced Coma-Free catadioptric designed to emulate the optical performance of a Ritchey-Chretien telescope: 6" aperture (1524mm focal length f/10). Pyrex primary mirror. Fully-multicoated UHTC (Ultra High Transmission Coatings) optics for the highest possible image brightness
  • Eight user-supplied C-cell batteries: The scope is powered by eight user-supplied C-cell batteries that store in the drive base so you can use the LT-6ACF in the field or your backyard without the need for a separate battery pack or AC power supply
  • Finderscope: A straight-through red dot finder allows easy non-magnified views of the sky, with a projected red dot of light showing exactly where the scope is pointed at all times.
  • Eyepiece: 1.25" 26mm Super Plossl (59x). The eyepiece field of view is 0.88 degree, 76% wider than the full Moon, for expansive lunar and deep space views.
  • Lightweight: The scope is surprisingly light. Its optical tube, fork arm and drive base weigh only 30 pounds, while the adjustable height tripod weighs only 9 pounds more
