Product Description

Excellent design with simple to use large high quality optics that are capable of revealing superb detail and clarity from Planetary to deep sky in one instrument. The Bresser Messier Dobsonian 8-inch is an innovative approach to modular Dobsonian telescope design from the optical giants Bresser. This forward-thinking design allies excellent ergonomics with an instrument which, while in this guise is simplicity itself, can be easily upgraded to full equatorial or alt/az goto capability.

Delivery Time
Delivery is normally 5-7 business days with this product direct from the supplier via tracked courier

A large aperture easy to use telescope with all you need to observe the wonders of the night sky, the Dobsonian design offers maximum light grasp at the pricing level and the Bresser Messier is cleverly designed to be easily upgraded.

Solar filter included
A full aperture CE approved solar filter is included with this telescope, the filter fits the main tube allowing views of the Sun through the eyepiece.

The Bresser Messier Dobsonian 8-inch uses two large radius altitude trunions to support itself and sits on a smooth, heavy duty, yet lightweight Dobsonian base, which puts it the telescope at a useful height for adults to observe comfortably. Remove these trunions from the telescope's rings, easily mount a Vixen or Losmandy profile dovetail plate instead and this telescope can be fitted to a wide array of commencially available equatorial and alt/az mounts - demonstrating a clear potential upgrade path. This telescope also comes with a 6x30 finderscope, the new ultra-stable Hex-Focuser (upgradable to dual speed version) and eyepiece and accessory rack with room for both 1.25" and 2" accessories.
