Description
Manual wide-field astronomy starts with the Doerr AC 60/700 Jupiter 60 AZ-1 Telescope, an achromatic refractor featuring a 60 mm aperture, 700 mm focal length, and listed f/11.7 optical ratio. Its AZ-1 manual alt-azimuth mount, aluminum tripod, 5×24 finder, SR4, H12.5, and H20 eyepieces, 2x Barlow lens, 1.5x erecting eyepiece, 90-degree diagonal, Moon filter, and accessory tray provide a complete configuration for lunar, planetary, and suitable terrestrial observation.
The 1.25-inch rack-and-pinion focuser accepts the supplied eyepieces and Barlow lens, while the erecting eyepiece and diagonal support upright viewing for appropriate daytime subjects. The manual AZ-1 mount requires no batteries or electronic alignment, and the Moon filter should be used only for its intended lunar application rather than solar observation, which requires a separate suitable solar filter system.
