Description
Compact catadioptric design defines the Bresser N 150/1400 Pollux EQ-3 Telescope, which combines a 150 mm aperture with a 1400 mm focal length and listed f/9.3 optical ratio inside a shorter tube format. Its manual EQ3 German equatorial mount uses flexible slow-motion shafts, while the aluminum tripod, accessory tray, LED red dot finder, two eyepieces, 3x Barlow lens, smartphone adapter, and certified solar filter provide a complete observation package.
The manufacturer identifies the Pollux as a catadioptric reflector with an integrated corrector lens, allowing the long focal length to be housed in a shorter optical tube than a conventional Newtonian of similar focal reach. The supplied configuration is intended for lunar, planetary, solar, and selected deep-sky observation, while the solar filter must be correctly fitted, inspected before each use, and used only for protected solar viewing.

Compact Long-Focus Observation
The supplied application focuses on manual equatorial observation of solar features, lunar terrain, planets, and selected bright astronomical targets, using the integrated corrector lens to provide the listed 1400 mm focal length within a shorter tube while the EQ3 mount supplies direct mechanical adjustment on both equatorial axes.
Included Accessories
The complete package includes the catadioptric optical tube, EQ3 equatorial mount, aluminum tripod, accessory tray, 20 mm and 4 mm eyepieces, 3x Barlow lens, LED red dot finder, smartphone camera adapter, certified solar filter, astronomy software, and the supporting accessories identified for the supplied Pollux configuration.
