Meade 12インチ ライトブリッジプラス ドブソニアン - 204011

I was a bit worried about moving it at first, but the collapsible truss design actually breaks down easily enough for one person to carry. The 12-inch Dobsonian mirror pulls in impressive detail on Orion’s nebula even from my suburban backyard.

Set-up was a breeze thanks to the collapsible base, and I had Jupiter’s bands and moons sharp as a tack within ten minutes of first light. The two-speed focuser makes fine-tuning a joy, and I can’t stop pulling the scope out every clear night.

The 12-inch mirror on this telescope is absolutely massive — I was able to clearly see Saturn’s rings on my first clear night out. The Dobsonian base feels rock solid, which made tracking Jupiter a breeze even at high magnification.
