You expect nothing less than crystal-clear images in your scope, but what are you going to do with the mount and tripod you already have? Mount it with the saxon 300DS Astrophotography Newtonian Telescope, that's what!

Combined with the aperture of 300mm and focal length of 1500mm, this scope is great for prime-focus photography. Higher quality images can be achieved with the optional coma corrector
