Description

The Levenhuk Blitz 70 BASE telescope is ideal for studying space. On the one hand, it is easy to handle and, on the other hand, you can observe a wide range of astronomical objects with it. Due to its aperture (70mm), you can study the Moon, planets of the solar system, and deep-sky bright objects in detail. You can use it as a powerful spotting scope to observe terrestrial landscapes as well.

The telescope uses an achromatic refractor scheme. Its lenses are made of glass. The optics are covered with an anti-reflective coating so that the rendered image is sharp and clear over the entire field of view. The fork azimuth mount features a microscrew on the vertical axis, which allows you to set a telescope on the selected object accurately. The aluminum tripod features an accessory tray. The tripod height is adjustable.

The kit includes a wide range of accessories so that you do not need to buy them separately. If you are interested, you can install any optical accessories with a 31.75mm eyepiece barrel diameter – the focuser allows you to do this.
