The counterweight ensures that the unit is well-balanced, while the aluminum tripod guarantees stability and lightness.
The telescope comes with the essential accessories to get you started:
An introductory astronomy manual is also included to help beginners with their first observations.
The MC 90/1250 is particularly efficient for and the Moon, This is thanks to its high magnification and excellent contrast. On the other hand, it is less suited to the observation of extended deep sky objects, due to its more limited aperture.
Nevertheless, it makes an excellent introductory instrument and an ideal complement to a larger telescope.
