If you'''d like to upgrade your telescope'''s 5 x 24 or 6 x 30 finder for night-time use but don'''t feel you need an illuminated reticle, the Explore Scientific 8 x 50 Straight-Through Finder is a good choice. The 8X magnification provided by this finder will bring objects just a little closer that a 5X or 6X finder, but the best feature of an upgrade to a 50mm finder is the larger optics. Just like all optical equipment, a larger light-gathering source means brighter images, and that is very desireable when you'''re finding objects that look like small specks of dust on a black background! The Explore 8 X 50 finderscope comes in white with black accents, and includes an 8 x 50 finder bracket with dual rings and a dovetail foot.

Each Explore Scientific 8 x 50 Straight-Through Finder comes complete with its own dual-ring quick release finder bracket. The finderscope base (FNDRBASEBLK) comes standard with all Explore Scientific telescopes. If you need a replacement, or want to mount an Explore finder on another telescope brand, you can buy the base separately.
