Bresser AR152L 6" F1200 Refractor Telescope


Recommended Posts

Hi @kyriakos08 and welcome to SGL. :hello2:

Can you attach a link to it? and/or images?

There are a few things I would consider if this is your first ‘scope…

  • Does it include a mount? including tripod/pillar.
  • What do you intend to view?
  • Do you intend to image with it?
  • What else is included? i.e. eyepieces, star diagonal, finder scope or RDF, etc.
  • Can you view it before payment?
  • How does the seller require payment?
  • Do you intend to travel with it?

I am not an expert, but I hope it helps you.

Anyway… wishing good luck if you are the lucky one… and clear skies.

Big scope, they retail new for £750 and the focuser upgrade £90 so it's around 1/2 price. Trouble is mounting it properly, needs a big heavy duty mount. They sell them on the EXOS2 which is like an EQ5 and it's not really man enough for the job. It's also an achromat so high power viewing will show chromatic aberration. You could probably find a used ED102 for similar money, great scope, better optics and much easier to mount and use. Still, if you really want a massive refractor on a budget and can get it mounted then they do perform really well at low to medium power. I had a 150 f/8 achro and scanning the milky-way in Cygnus was awesome!!!
