Bresser Telescope AC 127/1200 AR-127L Messier Hexafoc EXOS-2 (21522)

For the budget-conscious planetary observer, the AC 127 telescope is an excellent choice. It allows you to observe fine details such as small structures in Jupiter’s cloud bands, rims and craters on the Moon’s surface, and features on Mars, including its ice-covered polar caps. Watch Jupiter's moons move around the planet and detect the faint greenish glow of Uranus beyond Saturn's orbit. The combination of a large aperture and long focal length ensures sharp, high-contrast views that will amaze you every time.

Improved Precision with the Hexafoc Focuser
This telescope now features the upgraded Hexafoc focuser, which offers a free aperture of 65mm. For astrophotography enthusiasts, it can be retrofitted with a 1:10 reduction ratio fine focuser (available separately), allowing for more precise focus adjustments.

The Bresser EXOS-2 Mounting
The EXOS-2 is a sturdy equatorial mount with a high load capacity (up to 13 kg for visual use and 10 kg for photographic use). It provides precise tracking for both visual observation and astrophotography. Double radial ball bearings ensure smooth operation, while optimized RA axes reduce play. This robust and precisely engineered mount makes it easy to start exploring astrophotography. A motorized two-axis control can also be added for enhanced functionality.
