Telescope Bresser Messier 8" Dobson 203/1218 with solar filter

Telescope Bresser Messier 8" Dobson.

The Telescope Bresser Messier 8" Dobson is, quite simply, a breakthrough. At an unbeatable price, this telescope Bresser offers versatility and quality that rivals many much more expensive telescopes. The 203mm (8") optical diameter does not limit your observations to solar system objects, such as the Moon or planets, you can now reach much farther into the sky and explore globular and open clusters, nebulae and galaxies. With this telescope, structures of these objects begin to show up: globular clusters are no longer just fuzzy blobs, but masses of individual stars. Nebulae, which are barely detectable with smaller telescopes, reveal magnificent internal structures.

In addition, this telescope Bresser that we offer you at Telescopiomania is setting a new standard of versatility: the excellent Hexafoc focusing mechanism boosts the free diameter of 65mm (2.5") so you will avoid the dreaded vignetting in large wide field eyepieces, caused by the smaller barrels of the eyepieces.

The large altitude control wheels smoothly handle the tube with the large, heavy eyepieces (even when you add a binocular scope with two eyepieces), just move the tube on its rings to achieve balance in a matter of seconds.

The excellent rigidity of the focusing mechanism makes focusing a snap - even for astrophotographic use of the telescope. This is another virtue of this versatile telescope: you can remove the height control wheels from the tube rings, attach dovetails and use the optical tube on an equatorial mount for astrophotography in a matter of minutes. The focus is able to operate optimally even with heavy cameras. Are you very picky about image sharpness? No problem. With the optional 10:1 reduction gear, getting sharp images is very easy. Considering that the focusing mechanism is the most frequently used part of the telescope, you will immediately recognize what a quantum leap in quality the Hexafoc system represents compared to other telescopes in this price range.

With the included standard accessories (LED finder and 25mm SPL eyepiece) the Telescope Bresser is ready to carry out your observations immediately.

If you need to transport or store the telescope in the most compact way possible, the Bresser Messier 8" is quick and easy to assemble and disassemble thanks to the use of standard metal furniture fasteners. So you can transform the box into a practical packaging in no time.

All in all, this fantastic new scope is setting a new standard in ease of use, versatility and performance in its price range, the best 8" Dobson, now at your fingertips!
