The Sky Watcher Starquest 102 MAK Astronomy Telescope with EQ-AZ Mount 10280 is strong and compact so is the perfect instrument for observing multiple stars, as well as for examining the Moon's and bright planets' surface details. To enhance contrast and image sharpness, its high-resolution, long focal length optical system is multi-coated.  Equatorial/Alt-Azimuth Mount and an adjustable aluminium tripod are also included.

The STARQUEST Series is a portable, lightweight line that combines well-proven Sky-Watcher telescope optics with a freshly created, expertly manufactured Equatorial/Alt-Azimuth mount. The mount has a premium clutch system, precise gearing with 122 teeth per 360 degrees on both axes, great stability, and a 3 kilogram maximum payload. With its flawlessly functioning slow motion control wires, the mount, when polar oriented and utilised in equatorial mode, enables you to easily track objects as they travel across the night sky. The mount is very adaptable and may be used in Alt-Azimuth mode, making it a good choice for novices.
