Lunt LS60MT Modular H-Alpha Telescope with B1200C Blockfilter and RP focuser

Lunt LS60MT Modular H-Alpha Telescope

The LUNT Solar LS60MT is the smallest and most portable of the new line of modular telescopes. You can enjoy this new versatile 60 mm telescope with its new ED doublet lens in all our available wavelengths, for a true grab and go scope that will deliver excellent views in all its configurations. The LS60MT Telescope provides stellar solar viewing in its default configuration with provided Hydrogen Alpha Module, its 60 mm aperture allowing the viewer to gaze at the sun with an unobstructed clarity that is unparalleled in the industry. Explore the intricacies and features present on the sun with amazing detail utilizing our doppler true tuning pressure system; this will allow the viewer to change their view of the sun with the finest of adjustments, by simply adjusting the pressure within the system. The Lunt LS60MT can be use alongside some of your favorite accessories during the night or day! With its newly updated optics, you can watch as the features virtually protrude from the sun and see our closest star as you never have before, in all its splendor.

LS60MT Nighttime Telescope

A truly portable powerhouse telescope, the new Lunt Solar Systems LS60MT is certainly the choice for you. Easily configurable, the 60MT will provide the excellent Hydrogen Alpha viewing capabilities that Lunt Solar Systems is known for world wide, while optional accessories will give you the possibility of continuing your observation with White Light, Calcium K, Terrestrial and Night Time viewing at 70 mm aperture!

The 60MT has been designed with ease in mind, ensuring your transition from daytime to nigh time viewing in mere minutes. Equipped with an ED doublet lens and an extremely capable 2" Crayford focuser, the LS60MT is sure to delight in any configuration! Whether Hydrogen Alpha, White Light, Calcium K, or night time and terrestrial viewing, the 60MT can do it all!

True Doppler Tuning

Importantly, True Doppler Tuning allows for a shift into and away from the user, adding a 3-D like component to the viewing experience. To be sure, it has minimal effect on proms due to their location at the edge of the disk, but it does have an effect on filaments and likewise the active regions on the surface. Also while looking at a filament at the center of the Sun, the user has the ability to Doppler shift from the base of the filament to the tip. In this way following the filament through its structure toward you and away from you. Amazingly, this allowing for enhanced visual and imaging capability for the observer as well as a research tool for the avid hobbyist. In addition the pressure tuning system provides an order of magnitude more precision to the tuning of the desired features.

Important note:

In humid air, Lunt´s blocking filters might tarnish, so keep yours dry. You can get little packages of silica gel for reducing humidity even more. Put one and the filter into a small freezer bag and seal it.
