Description for Galileo Refractors 800x60 CC-2800
Azimuth Yoke Mount Telescopes:
The Galileo Refractors 800x60 Telescope is
mounted on an Altitude Azimuth yoke mount. It's easy use up and down, left and
right movement is great for beginners and casual star gazers alike. Terrestrial
viewing is extremely easy due to the included 45 degree diagonal which produces
a totally erect image. The Mount features a slow motion altitude adjustment rod
for precision adjustments and is attached to a very sturdy, fully adjustable,
pre-assembled metal tripod with retractable rubber feet. The telescopes optical
tube assembly is finished out with a 360 degree rotating focus housing for the
ultimate in convenience and usability. The Galileo CC-2800 Telescope's optical
tube assembly features a 800mm focal length. The objective lens of this Galileo
Telescope is an 60mm two element achromatic (color correct crown & flint) air
spaced objective lens. The tube itself is aluminum, painted flat black
internally, and fully baffled for excellent visual and CCD imaging for the
Galileo 800 x 60 Refractor Telescope. The objective is fully multi-coated and
has a resolving power of 1.9 arc seconds. The optical tube assembly is
diffraction limited at λ4 (1/4 wave in Sodium light). The diagonal consists of a
45 degree Schmidt prism that is fully coated in Magnesium Fluoride (refractive
index: n = 1.38). The finderscope is Galileo’s Mars’ Eye electronic Finderscope
which helps by getting the observer behind the telescope without losing the
surrounding field of view when targeting objects. Included with the CC-2800 are
a 6mm eyepiece (52° apparent field of view), a 20mm eyepiece (52° apparent field
of view) and a 3 element 3x Barlow.
