Lunt LS60MT Premium Kit

LS60MT Premium Kit : Universal modular day and night telescope 60 mm H-Alpha Double Stack

Visit LS60MT Premium Kit represents the ultimate expression of the Lunt 60 mm modular platform. This system combines a high-performance H-Alpha Double Stack solar telescope with a professional-quality ED refractor for complete day and night use.

Thanks to its dual calibration system, comprising an internal Pressure-Tuned module and a tilt-tuned LS50FHa front filter, the LS60MT Premium achieves a combined bandwidth of less than 0.28 Å. This level of contrast reveals chromospheric details invisible with single-stack systems.

Once the solar modules have been removed, the LS60MT becomes a 70mm f/6 ED refractor perfectly suited to lunar, planetary and deep-sky observation.

High-precision Double Stack: exceptional contrast

Front filter LS50FHa Double Stack works in series with the Pressure-Tuned Doppler True internal standard to greatly reduce the H-Alpha bandwidth.

This combination allows :

• Dramatically increase the contrast of the chromosphere
• Reveal the internal details of filaments
• Observe the complex magnetic structures of active regions
• Visualize protuberances with texture, flow and internal structures

Surface details become much sharper than with a conventional single-stack system.

True Pressure-Tuned Doppler System

The internal Pressure-Tuned Doppler True module enables precise adjustment of the bandwidth position on the H-Alpha line.

Unlike tilt-tuned systems only, this technology guarantees :

• Uniform bandwidth across the entire field
• Fast, precise adjustment
• Exploring the depths of the chromosphere
• Excellent uniformity of observation

The tilt-tuned front-end provides the extra bandwidth of high-end double-stack systems.

Ultra-detailed H-Alpha solar observation

With a bandwidth of less than 0.28 Å and a 60 mm aperture, the LS60MT Premium reveals :

• Perfectly defined beach cells
• Multi-structured filaments rich in detail
• Complex active regions
• Protrusions with internal flux and filaments

The Sun appears with an exceptional level of relief and texture.

Genuine ED night telescope

Once the solar modules have been removed, the LS60MT becomes a high-quality ED FLP51 70 mm f/6 telescope:

• Detailed lunar observation
• Excellent chromatic correction on planets
• Deep sky observation
• Large field and double stars

The same instrument covers solar and nocturnal astronomy without compromise.

B1200 imaging-optimized blocking filter

The included B1200 blocking filter offers a clear 12 mm aperture perfectly suited to solar imaging:

• Large circle image without vignetting
• Compatible with modern sensors
• Optimized for solar astrophotography
• Compatible with focal lengths up to 1200 mm

Professional dual-speed eyepiece holder

The LS60MT Premium incorporates a Rack & Pinion 2″ double-speed eyepiece holder with 10:1 reduction:

• Ultra-precise focusing
• 55-60 mm stroke
• Load capacity from 2.5 to 3 kg
• 2″ ring clamp
• 1.25″ adapter
• ZWO EAF autofocus compatible

This robust mechanism is ideal for heavy accessories and advanced solar imaging.

Versatile zoom eyepiece included

The 7.2-21.5 mm zoom eyepiece lets you instantly adapt magnification without changing eyepieces:

• Full disk observation at low magnification
• Quick zoom on active regions
• Quasi-perfocal design
• Fluid observation of evolutionary phenomena
