A105MII optical tube assembly.
The A105MII optical tube with 105mm effective aperture is a great starter telescope for beginners. It offers light gathering power which is about 225 times of unaided eye. It is applicable to observation at high magnification and viewing faintly glowing celestial objects. The achromatic lens delivers clear image of less chromatic aberration. The lens is multi-coated with three layers of anti-reflection coatings for reducing loss of light and increasing contrast of image. The A105MII refractor gets the stable images in a short time and you will be able to start observing quickly.

SX2 equatorial mount.
An entry model of the SX series of the equatorial mounts. With the same precision pulse motors and micro-step motions control as the upper SXD2, the SX2 is an excellent performer with smooth response. The maximum photographic loading weight is 12 kg. The SX2 mount comes as standard with the STAR BOOK ONE handheld controller, which features versatile tracking rates, different slewing speed, backlash compensation, autoguider port, PEC and more. The revolutionally advanced STAR BOOK TEN Go-to navigation controller sold separately is compatible with the SX2 mount.
