True Doppler Tuning

Importantly, True Doppler Tuning allows for a shift into and away from the user, adding a 3-D like component to the viewing experience. To be sure, it has minimal effect on proms due to their location at the edge of the disk, but it does have an effect on filaments and likewise the active regions on the surface. Also while looking at a filament at the center of the Sun, the user has the ability to Doppler shift from the base of the filament to the tip.  In this way following the filament through it’s structure toward you and away from you.  Amazingly, this allowing for enhanced visual and imaging capability for the observer as well as a research tool for the avid hobbyist. In addition the pressure tuning system provides an order of magnitude more precision to the tuning of the desired features.

Great for view solar eclipses

Was a little sceptical of what I'd be able to see at this price point as having used some more professional telescopes during my trip to North Dakota last year. I must say I was very pleasantly surprised - once I'd fitted my blocking filter I was able to see some really prominent sun-spots and granulations on the surface.

Glad I ordered this early as the back-log everywhere has been insane - I'll be able to take my son out for the Solar Eclipse coming up in December which he's really excited for. This is a great buy and really good scope for the price!
