It captures 100 times more light than your eye alone. As a result, you will see planets and the Moon with surprising detail. It is an ideal telescope for beginners and for daylight observations, such as birds or landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"89797\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skywatcher-AC-70-900-EQ-1-Telescoop-Capricorn-1.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher AC 70\/900 EQ-1 achromatic refractor with EQ-1 equatorial mount and aluminum tripod\" class=\"wp-image-89797\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clear image of planets and Moon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a maximum magnification of 140\u00d7 you can see Saturn's rings, cloud bands of Jupiter and Mars in color and detail. The Moon shows an impressive crater landscape that changes with the lunar phase. Precise focusing keeps your image sharp and stable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"89798\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skywatcher-AC-70-900-EQ-1-Telescoop-Capricorn-2.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher AC 70\/900 EQ-1 side view of telescope with focuser and tripod\" class=\"wp-image-89798\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Versatile and easy to use<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can use the telescope as a follower or as a companion tube to a larger telescope. With a dial focuser, you easily set the focus and keep it constant during observation. Accessories such as an Amici prism or reversing lens also work perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accurate tracking with EQ-1 mount<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The parallactic EQ-1 mount makes alignment to the Pole Star easy. Fine movements about the RA and DEC axes let you track objects precisely. The counterweight keeps the optics stable. The aluminum tripod is sturdy and adjustable from 70 to 120 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supplied complete<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The telescope comes with 25 mm and 10 mm eyepieces (1.25\u2033), a 1.25\u2033 90\u00b0 star diagonal, a 2\u00d7 Barlow lens and a Red Dot viewfinder.
