Product details

  • SKU IOP-6101

The iOptronĀ® 150mm Mak is a Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with a Rumak-style secondary mirror that is perfect for the serious amateur astronomer who wants apochromatic refractor-type performance at an affordable price. In fact, the multicoated and fully-baffled optics provide almost similar results as a 5-inch apochromatic refractor -- at a fraction of the cost.

The MAK150 from iOptron is the only Maksutov-CassegrainĀ of its kind that comes with a dual speed focuser for fine-tuning your images. Also included is an attachable dew shieldā€”rare for a MAKā€”for better performance in cold temperatures.
