Orion SkyView Pro8 EQ Reflector
The SkyView Pro 8 EQ reflector telescope just got smarter. Because now it's available with the IntelliScope Computerized Upgrade Kit, which, once installed, will take you anywhere in its 14,000-object computer database that you want to go, quickly and quietly. You'll be able to find and view more objects in one evening than you ever could before!
The telescope features an 8" (203mm) parabolic primary mirror, which is a giant 73% leap ahead of a 6" telescope in light-gathering power. You can go way beyond the Messier Catalog with this scope. And for the Moon and planets, the SVP 8's 1000mm focal length (f/4.9) gives you the ability to resolve plenty of detail at high power.
The IntelliScope system is nonmotorized but is compatible with optional TrueTrack electronic drives for tracking and guiding (but not computerized slewing). One year limited warranty.

Orion Sirius 8 EQ- G Reflector
Superbly Mounted f/4.9 Reflector Excels For Imaging
To capture dramatic celestial portraits, you need a solid mount and, ideally, a telescope with a large aperture and a "fast" focal ratio of f/6 or less. The Sirius 8 f/4.9 reflector fills the bill nicely, adding GoTo pointing and a surprisingly affordable price tag, to boot.
Even if visual observing is your primary interest, it will give you years of wonderful views and efficient, computerized navigation. At its heart is an 8" parabolic mirror of 1000mm focal length. The tube features a 2" rack-and-pinion focuser with a 1.25" insert and threads for mounting a camera body (with appropriate T-ring) for prime-focus photography.
Command the telescope to locate any of 13,400+ objects selected from the menus on the pushbutton hand controller. With the built-in autoguider interface and periodic error correction (PEC) plus a polar axis scope for accurate polar aligning, you'll have an album full of killer astroimages in no time!

Orion® Atlas™ 10 EQ-G Reflectors
Space-Penetrating Powerhouses Fit for a King
Nights under the stars will never be quite the same with the Atlas 10 EQ-G. They'll be much, much more rewarding. This scope's big 10" optics and newly engineered mount - now compatible with both GoTo and Standard dual-axis electronic hand controllers (your choice at time of purchase) - will show you what big-telescope performance is all about.
It starts with the optics. The Atlas 10 features a 254mm (10") parabolic mirror made from premium Pyrex® low-expansion glass for superior thermal stability. The upgraded 2" Crayford-style focuser has a 1.25" adapter to accommodate either size of eyepiece; a 1.25" 26mm Sirius Plössl comes standard, as does a 9x50 finder scope.
Then there's the mount. The beefy Atlas EQ-G provides stable support and motorized dual-axis control, courtesy of dual internal stepper motors that slew the scope at up to 3.4° per second and track with exceptionally low periodic error.
