Superb high-power performance, compact lightweight design, sharp high-contrast view, and clearly defined photographs make the Orion 180mm Maksutov-Cassegrain perfect for the advanced observer or astrophotographer.
The Orion EZ Finder II Telescope Reflex Sight makes aiming your telescope easy. The red adjustable brightness LED dot shows you exactly where your telescope is pointed. Includes a bracket that fits the dovetail mounting base on many Orion telescopes.
Powering your telescope equipment at remote sites is easy with the Orion Dynamo Pro 12 Rechargeable Power Station. It includes a detachable red flashlight, white halogen spotlight, AM/FM radio, and booster cables to jump-start a weak car battery.
These Orion RockStable Anti-Vibration Pads dampen vibrations transmitted through your tripod legs so you get much more stable images through your binoculars or telescope. Comes as a set of 3.
The Orion 1.25" Astrophotography Flip Mirror is a real time saver. It allows you to find and focus your target visually through an eyepiece instead of by tediously taking pictures. Focus through the eyepiece, then flip the mirror for photographing.
