Jeremy Hier

Takahashi telescopes SKY90 model is designed for portability. You'll have no problem carrying this telescope anywhere, the optical tube assembly is only 13.8" long, and weighs only 7 pounds. The Takahashi SKY90 telescopeis equipped with a fluorite doublet apochromatic optical system for brilliant images. Takahashi is continually upgrading its telescopic technology.

The TOA-130 is Takahashi Telescope's 21st century innovation. It employs a newly designed triplet using Takahashi special elements to produce the highest order of color correction. The TOA-130 is the perfect telescope for visual, CCD and photo imaging. You'll be able to see clear images of the moon and planets because this telescope is equipped with the LE-ED 2.8mm Takahashi ocular for high magnifications.

For astronomers who will do research and educational projects, take a look at the Takahashi C400/EM3500 telescope. This Classical Cassegrain is part of Takahashi's Observatory Series. This telescope will give you extremely high resolution without sacrificing contrast or a flat field because of its Classical Cassegrainian configuration, with a parabolic primary mirror and hyperbolic secondary.

The Takahashi FCT-200 Fluorite Apochromatic refractor telescope is one of the largest manufactured by Takahashi. It is designed for professional telescopic observatory use at universities, planetariums, summer homes etc. Takahashi has employed in this telescope the highest quality German optical glass and Japanese Fluorite for the center element. For maximum light transmissions all elements are multi-coated.

Takahashi continually strives to provide the most up to date advanced telescope equipment.
