The Orion ShortTube 80 is perfect being used as a guide scope with a CCD autoguider. It is a compact scope with optics that deliver bright wide-field images. This product is just the tube assembly with no accessories.
The 1.25" Orion Eyepiece Extension Tube provides 2" of extra focuser back travel sometimes needed to achieve focus for short-range terrestrial viewing. Includes 2 locking thumbscrews and is threaded for filters.
This 105mm ID Pair of Orion Guide Scope Rings will attach to a mounting plate for Orion guidescopes of up to 80mm aperture. Each ring has three black nylon alignment screws which will not scratch the guidescope finish.
The Orion Guide Scope Ring Mounting Bar allows easy attachment to SkyView Pro and Atlas telescopes. The mounting bar is for coupling guidescope and guidescope rings to a telescope.
