| The SkyWatcher INFINITY-76 telescope features a so-called Aspherical Technology - usually found in larger and more expensive telescopes, it is characterized by the fact that the primary mirror brings the light rays onto a common focal plane, which results in sharper and more detailed images. | ||||||||||

| The INFINITY-76 collects 131% more starlight than an average 50mm telescope, bringing hundreds more objects into view. Its intuitive up-down, left-right maneuverability makes it a user-friendly telescope especially suitable for young children. With a relatively easy setup the SkyWatcher Infinity 76P is almost ready right out of the box, and allows children to thoroughly explore the exciting universe. The telescope has a focal length of 300mm (f/4), 30 times magnification and a diameter of primary mirror of 76mm. (Source: UK Optics) | ||||||||||
