$Orion SkyView Pro 100ED EQ Apochromatic Refractor Telescope with IntelliScope Upgrade Kit$

Product Description

Recently Astronomy magazine ran a "buyer's guide" to portable 4" apochromatic refractors. All were impressive scopes, no doubt. But considering their price tags, which ranged from $2,695 to $3,595 without a mount, you'd be excused if you didn't run right out and throw down your credit card for one. Here's something more practical: our 100mm ED apochromatic refractor. Priced just under $1,2000 complete with mount, tripod, and accessories, it's by far the best value there is in high-end refractors. The ED100 delivers images remarkably free of chromatic aberration, thanks to its fully multi-coated 100mm objective doublet, one element of which is crafted from FPL-53 extra-low dispersion "ED" optical glass from Japan. The 100mm aperture gives this scope 56% greater light grasp than our ED80, and the 900mm focal length is ideal for planetary and lunar study and imaging work.
