The Saxon 1021 EQ3 GoTo Refractor telescope starts off with a 102mm objective lens housed in an achromatic refractor design. It has a 1000mm focal length that operates at an f/9.8 focal ratio. This means you get high quality, multi-coated optics that produce clear bright images that can reach a limiting stellar magnitude of 12.7. The telescope has 28% more light gathering power than 90mm, 112% more than 70mm models. It is well suited to the advanced astronomer and perfect for intermediate levels. However, even the seasoned sky veteran can appreciate the colour correction and sharp images the Saxon EQ 1021 Eq3 102mm GoTo refractor telescope can achieve!
