Refractor telescope Celestron Inspire 100AZ

Refractor Telescope Celestron Inspire 100AZ.

This is undoubtedly the ultimate telescope for the beginner-medium astronomer, as the Inspire 100AZ features the largest aperture in the Inspire series from Celestron and its short focal length tube offers a wider field of view, perfectly suited for fainter, larger, deep sky objects.

The Inspire series from Celestron goes a step ahead in entry-level telescope design, incorporating new features never before seen in more basic telescopes, surpassing the performance of the Astromaster series. Inspire features newly designed quality optics, mounted on a very solid and robust altazimuth mount, with a unique asymmetrical fork design, with a sturdy steel tripod and integrated folding accessory tray. This new mount, in addition to providing a spectacular look, is much lighter and more stable than the Astromaster AZ series.

As an outstanding accessory, the Inspire from Celestron that you will find at Telescopiomania features a smartphone adapter integrated into the lens cap. The mount carries an internal red LED flashlight, which softly illuminates the accessory tray and can be removed for independent use. A red pointer finder on a reticle screen, an image erector prism to facilitate terrestrial use of the telescope, and micrometer focusing to make it very easy to return to the same focus point complete the equipment.

The Inspire features the easiest set-up of any telescope in its class. Simply open the tripod legs, turn the locking knob on the accessory tray, and connect the telescope tube to the base using the quick-release dovetail. Now you're ready to observe!

The telescope cap has an integrated smartphone adapter. Place the smartphone against the rubber surface on the outside of the lid so that the camera is aligned with the eyepiece. Secure the phone using the two adjustable bungee cords. The inside of the lid has an attachment that attaches to the eyepiece using two set screws - in an instant you can take high-powered images through the telescope! This way you can get started in astrophotography in the easiest way.

The mount has a built-in red LED flashlight to illuminate the accessory tray with a soft red glow. The flashlight can be easily removed from the mount to provide illumination where you need it most.

The new micrometer focus has a numbered scale indicating the position of the focusing mechanism. It allows a quick return to a specific focus point for specific targets, such as a bird's nest, infinity focus, etc.
