PLEASE NOTE: This is a one-off special sale: This telescope is brand new but has been previously unboxed and assembled for display and demonstration purposes for two days by us at the London Astrofest in February. The telescope shows light handling and assembly marks only. Optics and function have been checked and are all A1. It is boxed and complete with all standard accessories. Full 12 months warranty. It's available on a first come first served basis.

Compared to a similarly sized Schmidt-Newtonian, the Maksutov-Newtonian yields a sharper and more contrasty image. Naturally, the Maksutov-Newtonian is an excellent visual performer too!
