8-Inch Dobsonian Reflector Telescope (Red)

The gorgeous ruby-red paint offers a beautiful sight during the day, and the telescope offers fantastic views of night sky! This special-edition telescope comes with an extra eyepiece and a 2x Barlow lens.

With 8 inches of light-gathering power and a fast focal ratio, this reflector is a workhorse that is a perfect tool for observing and imaging nebulae, galaxies and star clusters while also providing striking views of our solar system’s top sights. Its focal ratio of f/5.9 delivers the wide field of view and shorter exposure times that are crucial for deep sky astrophotography. The Dobsonian mount is simple to operate, smooth to move and enhanced with a spring tension system to maintain tube balance and accommodate optional accessories.

In addition to having a unique optical tube color, this special edition reflector includes a 70° Series 25mm eyepiece for a wide field of view as well as a 2x Barlow lens that lets you double the power of the 70° Series 25mm eyepiece and the included 10mm Plossl eyepiece. 

Features

  • Large 208mm primary mirror has impressive light-gathering capability that is great for exploring deep sky, the planets and the lunar landscape
  • Smooth Dobsonian mount is easy for astronomers of all skill levels to operate and has a spring-based tension system to maintain tube balance
  • 1219mm focal length delivers a fast focal ratio of f/5.9, which means brighter images, a wider field of view and shorter exposure times for astrophotography
  • Includes a 2-inch 70° Series 25mm eyepiece that showcases more celestial real estate and provides magnification of 49x; a 10mm Plossl eyepiece for magnification of 122x; and a 1.25-inch 2x Barlow lens to double the magnifying power of the 10mm eyepiece.
  • 2-inch Crayford focuser comes with a 1.25-inch adapter to accommodate a range of eyepieces and accessories
  •  Included accessories are a red-dot finder scope for locating objects in the night sky, a smartphone adapter to aid in simple astrophotography and a dust cover to minimize the build-up of dust and fine debris on the mirrors when in transit or storage
