iOptron MC 150/1800 OTA Maksutov telescope

Designed for the discerning amateur astronomer, the iOptron MAK 150 offers apochromatic refractor-level performance at a fraction of the cost. Its Rumak-type 150mm Maksutov-Cassegrain optics, featuring multicoated lenses, deliver results comparable to those of a 5-inch apochromatic refractor, making it an exceptional value proposition.

With the MAK 150, you'll witness breathtaking images of lunar and planetary surfaces, discern fine details in binary star systems, and explore deep-sky objects with clarity and precision. Despite its lightweight design, the optics are meticulously engineered to produce images that defy expectations.

Unique to the MAK 150 is its dual-speed focuser, allowing for precise adjustments to fine-tune your images. Additionally, it comes equipped with an attachable dew shield, a rare feature for Maksutov-Cassegrain telescopes, ensuring optimal performance even in cold temperatures.
