Manufacturer's Description
Orion Orion StarBlast 4.5 Equatorial Reflector Telescope
The Orion StarBlast 4.5 EQ combines the much-heralded StarBlast wide-field (f/4.0) parabolic optics with a sturdy, adjustable-height EQ-1 equatorial tracking mount. The telescope's short focal length serves up a generous chunk of sky in the eyepiece, making it easy for beginners to find objects. This version of the StarBlast offers an even more pronounced wide-field viewing experience, the upgraded telescope eyepieces to include two from the Expanse series 15mm(30x) and 6mm(75x) which have a 66-degrees apparent field of view. Images of everything from the Moon to the Messier objects appear exceptionally sharp and contrasty. And the EZ Finder red-dot aiming finder scope makes starhopping around the sky a breeze.
