Description

Bring a fast photo-visual optical platform into a custom astronomy setup with the Bresser N 203/800 Messier NT 203S Hexafoc OTA, a standalone 203 mm Newtonian reflector with an 800 mm focal length and listed f/3.9 optical ratio. The verified configuration includes an aluminum optical tube, 85 mm secondary mirror, 2.5-inch Hexafoc focuser, 8×50 finder, mounting rings, stainless steel dovetail rail, camera holder, smartphone adapter, 26 mm eyepiece, and aperture solar filter.

The optical tube is designed for compatible mounting equipment selected separately, with a manufacturer-listed 60 mm inward backfocus, six-point flotation support for the primary mirror, large adjustment knobs, and preparation for an optional 10:1 focuser reduction and HR Coma Corrector. The mount, tripod, counterweights, tracking system, and power equipment are not part of this standalone OTA configuration unless separately supplied by the seller.

Included Accessories

The verified OTA package includes the optical tube, 26 mm Super Plossl eyepiece, integrated 1.25-inch and T2 adapter, 2-inch eyepiece adapter, 8×50 finder, aperture solar filter, smartphone navigation adapter, Stellarium software, tube rings, carrying handle, integrated camera holder, universal stainless steel dovetail rail, and related mounting hardware.

Bresser Warranty and Support
