Or, attach your camera to one and an eyepiece to the other and capture images with ease.With no corrector plate, the VMC110L features a small corrector lens ahead of the secondary mirror. The curved mirror braces reduce the effect of light diffraction.The Porta II Alt Az Mount gives great performance when viewing objects at high magnification, the damping and vibration being significantly reduced as compared to other lesser quality telescope mounts.

Features:        
① Compact optical tube with VMC optical system having a meniscus in front of a secondary mirror
