What's In The Box
saxon 10mm/25mm 1.25’’ super Eyepiece
Featuring a 3-element design, these fully-coated eyepieces provide outstanding field correction and long eye-relief. Stray light is eliminated by the fold back rubber eyecups; standard with every Super eyepiece.
saxon 6x30 Finderscope with bracket
The 30mm aperture gives a brighter and sharper image, while 6x magnification lets you centre in on your targets while still providing a good field of view. Lock on to your targets with the cross-hair reticle and observe away.
saxon 1.25’’ Erect Image Diagonal (45 degree)
It can give you a comfortable viewing angle and an upright, non-mirrored image when you need your telescope is a horizontal position.
saxon AZ3 Mount with Tripod
It is an aluminium tripod with dual axis slow-motion controls.
Everything arrived safe and sound. It's hard to know what you will get when buying online. I was recommend this model as an upgrade to a smaller diameter Saxon telescope. Whilst a much bigger diameter, the effect for landscape viewing was not that dramatically improved. It's a lot bigger and bulky to have and move around the house. So I'd probably recommend testing if you can before you buy. Other than that, it works, but a little disappointed it's not better.
Hi Hayden
Thanks for your review.
I just want to check you have tried the telescope with both eye pieces i.e. the 25mm gives less magnification but greater field of view, the 10mm gives greater magnification, less field of view.
Also with this telescope there is sufficiently more power available should you want more magnification ( up to 180x ) you just need to get either a 2x Barlow or a higher magnified eye piece to achieve this. Hope this helps. Terrie

Amazing Company to purchase from.
I brought this for my Husband and he seriously loves it...... He is on it most nights and even as soon as he gets home from a nightshirt.
Super fast delivery and brilliantly packaged. Looking forward to purchasing more products for him from your company. Highly recommend xx
Hi there
I have assembled the telescope according to the instructions.
The main telescope is working fine but the finderscope is viewing upside down.
I just cannot remedy this.
Is there something simple I am doing wrong?
Hi Graham
Great to hear you have the telescope up and running and no you are not doing anything wrong regarding the finderscope.
The type of finderscope you have, presents its image upside down. This is because your finderscope is used mostly for astronomy ( you shouldn't need it for day time use) and in most instances this is how the night sky is viewed.
Send me an email if you want to discuss further. Cheers.
