ACUTER is a benchmark brand in the field of amateur and educational astronomy, renowned for its innovative, reliable and high-quality products. Visit Voyager MAK70 is perfectly in line with this philosophy, offering a versatile, compact, high-performance instrument.
The ACUTER Voyager MAK70 is a telescope Maksutov-Cassegrain 70 mm, designed for both astronomical and terrestrial observation and occasional photography. Thanks to its rectified image, It can be used by day to observe nature, landscapes or distant subjects, and by night to discover the Moon, planets and brilliant deep-sky objects.
Its compact size and light weight make it an ideal telescope for beginners, travelers or anyone wanting an instrument that's easy to carry and quick to set up.
With a 1000 mm focal length (f/14), The Voyager MAK70 offers high magnification in a very short tube. This type of optic is renowned for :
The telescope is supplied with the ACUTER 2D-MicroTune alt-azimuth frame, equipped with micrometric controls on the altitude and azimuth axes. This enables smooth, precise tracking at both low and high magnification.
The frame is associated with a height-adjustable tripod with extendable central column, guaranteeing stability and viewing comfort.
The Voyager MAK70 is supplied with a universal smartphone adapter, This is the perfect solution for capturing images of the Moon, planets or terrestrial landscapes directly through the eyepiece.
Smartphone not included.
The ACUTER Voyager MAK70 is an excellent choice for discovering astronomy with a serious, compact, upgradeable instrument that's just as enjoyable by day as it is by night.
The Moon in great detail, the planets (Jupiter’s bands, Saturn’s rings, Venus’s phases), and double stars: its long focal length naturally provides high magnifications. For deep-sky observing, it is limited to the brightest clusters and objects. Its maximum useful magnification is about 140× (2 × the diameter in mm); in practice, atmospheric turbulence often forces observers to stay below this limit.
No eyepiece is included with this model. The magnification is calculated by dividing the telescope's focal length (1000 mm) by that of the eyepiece: for example, a 25 mm eyepiece provides 40× magnification.
The tube weighs about 1.1 kg.
No, practically never: a Maksutov's optics are factory-adjusted and remain stable, which is one of its major advantages for beginners. To check, a star test is all it takes: point the telescope at a bright star, defocus it slightly, and the rings should be perfectly concentric.
With a smartphone adapter, you can take souvenir photos of the Moon and the planets—but that's all. Deep-sky photography isn't possible: the mount doesn't track the sky's movement.
