![]() This is the refracting telescope in its most basic form. The quality minded users, the academic users and avid observers will like to collect all these brands at some point of time.Most people seem to have a fairly generic idea of a telescope that they picture in their minds, particularly when shopping for one: A long, skinny instrument with a lens at one end mounted on a spindly but elegant tripod, with the eyepiece at the rear. ![]() The users are satisfied and referring the brands to others. It’ll be a long term investment which will be fruitful for serious star gazers.Īll the three brands are performing well in the market. Its image sharpness, clarity and unwanted colour filtration capacity have made this telescope different from the other two. Though the price of Astro Physics 130EDT is much higher than the two, the various aspects starting from product design to usability- the telescope is outstanding. The Starmaster F/5.6 Oak Classic is $1000 worth, while the Intes MN61 is available at $1500. The price differs to some extent from seller to seller. On the otherhand, The Intes MN61 works excellently in light polluted areas too the other two are not so sharp in this regard.Īstro Physics 130EDT is an expensive telescope with price tagged at $3650. The Astro-Physics 130 EDT is very useful in foggy nights too as its light gathering capacity is much higher than the other two. The Starmaster F/5.6 Oak Classic is a bulkier than the other two, hence it’s less portable than the others. The planets and deep space celestial objects are clearly visible through this telescope.Ĭomparison study shows that all the three types of telescopes are excellent, powerful and handy tool for viewing night sky. Light weight has made this telescope very much portable. The Intes MN61: The telescope works excellently under light polluted sky. The azimuth and altitude are both smoothly movable. The colour aberration is almost nil and the mount is a perfect one to absorb vibrations. The Starmaster F/5.6 Oak Classic: Space observation is really spectacular through this telescope. The clear and colour free glasses bring sharp images. The planets and distant stars are distinctly visible through it. The product is designed to gather maximum light of night sky and deep sky viewing. The weight is 21lb with 47x7x7 inch dimension.Īstro-Physics 130 EDT: This telescope is light weight with strong mounting. It has 6 inch aperture and f/6 focal ratio. The Intes MN61: This is an excellent catadioptric type of telescope. The weight is little over 41lb with 48x16x16 inch dimension. With 7inch aperture and f/5.6 focal ratio this is a great telescope for deep space viewing. The Starmaster F/5.6 Oak Classic: This is a classic Newtonian telescope with zambuto mirrors. The magnification range is almost 20x to 500x. Spherical aberrations are also minimized by special design The dimension is approximately 43x9x9 inches. The body is mainly made of aluminum and black coating inside. Reflector: The Starmaster F/5.6 Oak Classic.Īstro-Physics 130 EDT: This is one of the best refractor types of telescope with 5.1inch aperture and f/8 focal ratio. In these three categories the best of the bests telescopes are The catadioptric type of telescope is a combination of refractor and reflector type of telescope. A Curved mirror gathers light, and then a flat mirror diverts the light towards the eyepiece. In reflector type of telescope, which is also known as Newtonian telescope, two mirrors are used instead of two lenses. In refractor type of telescope, the object lens collects light from the distance object and converge it into a single point of focus, the second lens or the eyepiece then accept the converged rays of light and magnify it for observer’s view. There are three distinct types of telescopes available in the market- Refractor, Reflector and Catadiopatric.
