Color Filter Set Essential is recommended for Moon & Planets from 50mm (2") Aperture Essential Set includes the following filters: BRESSER Filter Red (1,25):The blue/blue green light is totally blocked. The contrast between the card and the lighter zones will enormously increase. This is truly helpful when you watch Jupiter or Saturn. Or for mars, watching the poles. BRESSER Filter Green (1,25):The green filter is to increase the contrasts enormously between the red and the blue regions of the cloud structures on the gas planets Jupiter and Saturn. Seeing our Earth Moon through the green filter, the contrasts of each ray crater become clearly more visible.BRESSER Filter Blue (1,25):The color of light blue really supports watching the high clouds on Mars. The contrast increases. The dark red structures will be shown even darker, so this is the perfect filter for watching the big red Flecks on the gas planet Jupiter. The rings of Saturn will be accentuated, the structures of the Venus Atmosphere will be even finer. BRESSER Filter Yellow (1,25):Watching the Moon surface through the filter, the contrasts will enormously increase. Same with planet Mars. On the huge planet Jupiter, when using the filter, you can even see the contrasts between the cloud-bands and a lot more details. Starting with a telescope diameter of 8“ and a clear sight, you even get to see various details of Saturn. What ist a color Filter for and do we really need it? Color Filters darken the light slightly, that reaches the eye or the sensor of the camera. This eliminates for instance stronger transitions. The result is that your picture turns out with more contrast which automatically shows more details. FEATURESVersatile colour filter set For eyepieces and accessories with 1.25" filter thread Increase contrast on moon and planets Making object details more visibleSCOPE OF DELIVERY4pcs color filter: Red, Green, Blue, Yellow

AXD2 GoTo mount with AX103S telescope set The AXD2 mount comes with the new STARBOOK TEN controller and the PFL polar viewfinder, which allows you to configure the mount quickly and easily via reference stars.This telescope set has everything that you need for hobby astronomy.It includes a telescope, a mount with automatic tracking and a sturdy tripod. Featuring the STARBOOK TEN control system, the telescope locates celestial objects automatically so that you don't need to search for them manually.Even if you're not an expert, you can still give your friendsan exciting tour through the night sky! The AXD2 mount in detail:Robust construction and lightweight housing with 30 kg load capacity (photographic)The A7075 superalloy, the strongest aluminium alloy, is used for the R.A. and DEC axes. The stability of the A7075 superalloy is stronger than titanium, which is known for its strength as a lightweight material. Its thickness is 38% less than titanium. Using the A7075 superalloy for the axes ensures that the AXD mount is both lightweight and stable.21 bearingsThe rotating parts of the AXD mount have a total of 21 bearings. These ensure uniform motion in order to swivel the telescope and track objects.Stepper motorsVixen uses precise stepper motors for the mount in order to ensure optimal performance. The motors are controlled via a micro-step motion control system, which eliminates the disadvantage of stepper motors with large steps. The system generates 400 impulses per second at a high speed. This results in very quiet scanning with no vibrations. The stepper motors on the AXD mount have sufficient torques. This is most significant when working at high magnifications and photographing with a CCD camera with small pixel sizes.Worm gearsThe sizes of the worm gears were increased in the latest Atlux version. The AXD mount has 270 teeth in the R.A. axis and 216 teeth in the DC axis. Both axes are 50 mm in diameter. This ensures that the mount operates with precision and stability.Low backlashThe Vixen micro-step motion control system ensures that the stepper motors run uniformly at low and high speeds. This eliminates the need for reduction gears in the motor and therefore reduces the backlash in the gears.Elegant designThe flat sides of the mount were designed based on previous generations of the New Atlux range. The white and silver housing provides a modern and elegant exterior with high functionality.The AXD is the flagship model in the Vixen mount range.Original motor layoutThe solid R.A. and DEC motor units are arranged in the lower part of the mount. This means that they automatically act as a counterweight. As a result, you require far fewer weights on the counterweight bar. On small devices, no counterweight is required. The counterweight bar can be slid fully into the housing.Polar finder scopeThe AXD mount is equipped with a 6x20 polar finder as standard. The polar finder features an integrated scale, which provides a quick and easy way to polar align the telescope in the northern hemisphere.For observations in southern latitudes, the polar finder features an image of the Octans constellation, which can be aligned with the night sky.VPEC periodic error correctionPeriodic errors on mounts are usually measured and corrected by the user. Unlike the old StarBook controller, the STAR BOOK TEN controller saves these errors permanently. The periodic error of the mount is measured in the factory and corrected before delivery. This is known as VPEC and functions automatically as soon as you use the mount.It delivers an accuracy of +/- 2.8 arc seconds. You can increase the tracking accuracy further by saving your own recorded periodic errors.The AX 103S in detail:The AX103S is a top-of-the-range ED apochromat in the refractor series.It features a triplet ED lens and a rear-mounted field flattener lens.The f8.0 refractor contains a central ED lens in the objective and reduces chromatic aberration to an absolute minimum.An optional focal reducer can reduce the aperture ratio to 1:5.6 in order to provide quicker results for astrophotographers.The built-in field flattener lens provides a sharp image across the entire field of view - an essential requirements in astrophotography.The 60 mm ring on the focuser allows you to attach a 2'' eyepiece and a camera adapter.The AX103S is specially designed for photography, but also offers stunning visual performance, especially for observing the moon and the planets.This telescope is guaranteed to provide a lifetime of outstanding performance!FEATURESAXD2 GoTo mount with AX103S telescopeProfessional telescope kitMount with 30 kg load capacity (photographic)Modern STARBOOK TEN controller with autoguider inputAXD 103S apochromat for full frame photographyIlluminated polar finder with direct star alignmentSturdy, vibration-resistant TR102 tripodTotal weight: 55.3 kgDELIVERY CONTENT AX103S apochromatTR102 tripod AXG half-pier 2 counterweights (1.5 kg and 7.0 kg) 7x50 finder scope Folding mirror Carry handle
