Take beautiful pictures of the night sky with your own DSLR camera and this thorough astrophotography bundle.

Orion's 8" reflector telescope and SkyView Pro equatorial mount with GoTo computerized control automatically locates targets from a 42,900 object database.

Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with a big 7.1" (180mm) aperture and 2,700mm focal length (f/15) excels for high-power solar system use and astrophotography.

The 100mm aperture gives it 56% greater light grasp than our ED80. And the 900mm focal length (f/9.0) excels at visual planetary and lunar study and imaging work as well.

If the idea of a big-aperture telescope appeals to you, but the portability issue has kept you on the fence, you can hop off it now. We've got the perfect solution - the SkyQuest XX12i IntelliScope Truss Tube Dob. It's a deep-sky observer's dream scope, offering jumbo 12" Pyrex optics (f/4.9); a stylish, reduced-weight base outfitted with IntelliScope object location technology; and a sturdy truss tube design that disassembles in about a minute into compact, easily portable components.

The XX12g telescope optical tube employs a rigid 8-pole truss design that virtually eliminates flexure observed in 6- and 3-pole collapsible tube designs. Stability of the assembled XX12g Dobsonian base is enhanced by its 1-inch thick composite wood base panels, which are laminated with water-resistant black melamine.

Maybe the idea of a big-aperture telescope appeals to you, but the portability issue has kept you on the fence. Well you can hop off it now because we’ve got the perfect solution — the "space-saving" Orion SkyQuest XX12i IntelliScope® Truss Tube Dobsonian. It’s a deep-sky observer’s dream telescope, offering jumbo 12" (305mm) Pyrex parabolic optics of 1500mm focal length (f/4.9); a stylish, reduced-weight base outfitted with computerized IntelliScope object locating technology; and a sturdy, eight-truss tube design that disassembles in about a minute into compact, easily portable components. And at its price, the XX12i ranks as the #1 killer telescope deal of the year!

With the Sirius EQ-G mount and GoTo hand controller you'll experience effortless computerized navigation to 42,900 celestial objects with a few button pushes on the illuminated hand controller. Internal dual-axis stepper motors move the telescope at up to 3.4° per second right to your target object, tracking it while you observe or photograph it. Periodic error correction (PEC), a port for an autoguider, and an illuminated polar axis scope for accurate polar aligning are all standard features, designed to ensure successful astroimaging adventures!

You’ll be delighted with beautiful views of the night sky when using the SkyView Pro 8 Equatorial Reflector Telescope. You can go way beyond the Messier catalog with this telescope! Thanks to its substantial aperture, the 8” SkyView Pro gathers enough light for pleasing views of faint and elusive deep sky objects which you simply cannot detect with smaller diameter instruments. When aimed at the Moon or planets of the solar system, the Orion SkyView Pro 8 Equatorial Reflector Telescope’s 1000mm focal length (f/4.9) gives you the ability to resolve fine detail at high power.

Orion's highest-quality 102mm aperture apochromatic refractor telescope with a beautiful carbon fiber tube is a joy to look at, and to use!

The Orion Atlas 8 EQ-G GoTo Reflector Telescope tube assembly features a deluxe 2" Crayford-style focuser with a 1.25" adapter, allowing use of either 2" or 1.25" eyepieces as well as other accessories. Large knurled collimation knobs on the high-ventilation rear cell and a center mark on the primary mirror itself make optical alignment, also called collimation, easy and precise. We even include a simple collimation cap to help you align your telescope’s optics. The Atlas EQ-G mount requires an external 12-volt DC power supply or an AC-to-DC adapter to run off of household 110-volt AC, all sold separately.

Nights under the stars will never be quite the same with the Orion Atlas 10 EQ-G GoTo Reflector Telescope. They’ll be much, much more rewarding. This scope’s huge 10" optics and precise, heavy-duty computerized GoTo mount will show you what big-telescope performance is all about.

As any prolific astrophotographer will tell you, the more light you can gather, the better your astrophotos will turn out. Combine light-gathering prowess with a compact design and an affordable price, and you're likely to end up with our new 8" f/8 Ritchey-Chretien Astrograph. As a leading supplier of affordable imaging equipment and solutions for amateur astronomers, Orion is proud to introduce this highly regarded telescope design used by advanced astrophotographers and professional observatories worldwide — and even by the Hubble Space Telescope!
