Description
Reaching this catalog’s sharpest resolving power, the Bresser Dobson N 254/1270 Messier DOB Telescope carries a 10-inch parabolic mirror — 0.45-arcsecond resolving power and a limiting magnitude of 13.8, the deepest-reaching numbers of any telescope in this lineup.
At 16.4kg for the tube alone, this is genuinely the heaviest single optical tube in this catalog, built for an observer who has floor space, patience for setup, and a specific goal of seeing the faintest galaxies and nebulae this catalog can reach. Large powder-coated altitude wheels keep an aperture this substantial moving smoothly by hand despite the tube’s considerable weight.
Key Features of Bresser Dobson N 254/1270 Messier DOB Telescope
A 10-inch parabolic Newtonian mirror resolves down to 0.45 arcseconds, reaching a limiting magnitude of 13.8, the deepest reach in this entire catalog.
- 10-inch parabolic mirror is the largest aperture in this entire catalog
- 0.45-arcsecond resolving power is the sharpest number this catalog reaches
- Large altitude powder-coated radii wheels keep this substantial aperture moving smoothly
- 2.5-inch Hexafoc heavy-duty focuser handles a full 2-inch imaging train
- Solar lens filter included for safe daytime solar observation
- Magnification range from 36x to 500x, the highest ceiling in this catalog
- Maximum aperture suits a dedicated deep-sky observer with the space to house it
Where the N 254/1270 Pulls Ahead
Against the 8-inch Dobson sharing this catalog’s full-size floor-standing format, the 254/1270 gathers considerably more light and resolves finer detail — the deepest reach into faint galaxies and nebulae this catalog offers, at the cost of the heaviest tube to move and store.
Applications & Use Cases
Built for deep-sky manual tracking and high-resolution planetary tracking, this telescope captures deep galactic details and intricate nebulae structures for a dedicated deep-sky observer.
- Serious deep-sky observers wanting this catalog’s maximum aperture
- Observers with dedicated storage and floor space for the largest tube here
- Anyone prioritizing resolving power above every other consideration
