Celestron Inspire 70AZ - Entry-level Telescope 70/700mm with Smartphone Holder

Celestron Inspire 70AZ - Refractor Telescope for Beginners

The Inspire 70AZ is ideal for beginners who are looking for a good high quality and portable telescope for sky observation, landscape and wildlife observation and may also like to take photos with a smartphone.

The telescopes have fully coated glass lenses, a newly developed altazimuthal mount with unique asymmetric design, a rugged steel tripod with integrated retractable accessory tray, an integrated universal smartphone adapter for photography, a built-in LED flashlight, a large red dot finder and a focuser with micrometer to help you find the focus point more easily, and they deliver an upright image.

The Inspire telescopes are child´s play to set up, even easier than other models in this class: simply unfold the tripod legs, tighten the accessory tray locking screw and place the telescope on the mount with the dovetail quick coupling. Just remove the protective caps and insert the eyepiece - and you can watch!

A smartphone holder is built into the dust cover! Simply attach your smartphone to the cover so that the camera looks through the hole and secure it with two elastic bands. On the inside of the cover there is an adapter with two clamping screws to attach the cover to the eyepiece. Et voila! Now you can easily photograph through your telescope.

The mount also houses a red LED torch. Switch it on and the accessories shelf will be illuminated gently red without disturbing your dark adaptation. The flashlight can also be easily removed so you have the light where you need it.

The micrometer scale on the eyepiece extension marks the position of the eyepiece extension. This allows you to quickly reproduce certain focus settings, like for infinity or a bird´s nest.
