Telescope Bresser Messier Maksutov 100/1400 EQ3 >200x with smartphone adapter

The compact, long focal length Maksutov optics has virtually no color abberation and is especially suitable for the observation of the moon and planets. Even from light polluted cities you can observe bright and compact objects like planetary nebulae or globular clusters.
All the telescopes in this series have equatorial mounting (also known as parallactic mounting). This allows for compensation of earth rotation and exact following of the celestial object observed.
