About this product
The Konus KonusNova-114 f/3.8 AZ Reflector Telescope makes an ideal entry-level instrument, with a large-aperture primary mirror that is well-suited for making detailed observations of the moon and planets; and bright deep-sky objects like star clusters, binary systems, and nebulae. Supporting the optical tube is a basic manual alt-azimuth mount and an adjustable-height aluminum tripod. This observation kit comes complete with two eyepieces that provide low 25x and moderate 62.5x magnifications with a moon filter, a universal smartphone adapter, 2x Barlow lens, and an unmagnified red-dot finder to make locating objects easier and star-hopping navigation faster.
Optical Tube Assembly
- Large 114mm f/4.3 aperture to view the moon, planets, stars and clusters, and other bright deep space objects
- Short 500mm focal length ensures a wide field of view and low magnification potential

- Sturdy and reliable rack-and-pinion focuser
- 1.25" drawtube accepts the most common eyepieces and accessories
