A Compact Maksutov-Cassegrain for Sharp Lunar and Planetary Views

The FirstLight 127mm Mak-Cassegrain delivers sharp, high-contrast views of the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects through a compact, folded optical design that packs a long focal length into a short tube.

Fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission for bright, crisp images, while the 127mm aperture and f/15 focal ratio make this scope a natural fit for high-magnification lunar and planetary observation.

The optical tube arrives ready to observe with a 25mm Plossl eyepiece, a 1.25-inch 90-degree diagonal, a red dot finder, and a smartphone adapter for casual astrophotography.
