TAL-150P8

This scope is developed on the basis of TAL-2 and has similar specifications and design - 6" aperture, 1200mm focal length, f/8 focal ratio, premium optics, precise fully adjustable mirror cell and secondary spider and thick seamless alluminium tube which is internally blackened to increase contrast and supress internal reflections. There are some differences however. The mirror is parabolical instead of spherical allowing better views. The size of the secondary mirror is reduced by 10mm which leads to improved planetary contrast. There are also changes to the focuser - the travel has been extended. The telescope is mounted on a rigid equatorial mount complete with illuminated polar finder for quick and precise polar alignment, setting circles and RA motor drive that allows easy tracking of celestial objects and long photographic exposures. The mount can be also manually driven on both axes. The optical tube is attached to the mount with two solid alluminium tube rings with quick release clamps that allow easy rotation for maximum observation comfort.

The standard equipment includes everything required to go beneath the stars - 8x50 finder, two multicoated 1.25" Super Plossl eyepieces - 25 and 10 mm, 2x Barlow lens, neutral and color filters, projection screen, piggy-back adapter and T2/M42 adapter.
