Description

This set includes a 70 mm refracting telescope with an azimuthal, easy-to-operate mount and two eyepieces. The MOBILE PORTA is a small transportable travel mount for fast observations and does not require time-consuming installation. Thanks to the new compact, lightweight design, it is ready for use in no time and is easy to transport. The angle of the new multi-arm can be adjusted, allowing you to observe at the zenith – including with longer telescopes. In addition to these new functions, the telescope also comes with the other tried-and-tested features of the Porta series, such as a slip clutch and fine adjustment.

The telescope can be moved by hand in all directions and is held in position by a slip clutch. This allows you to adjust the telescope to your desired object with ease.

The angle of the new multi-arm can be adjusted, allowing you to observe at the zenith – including with longer telescopes. The angle of the multi-arm can be adjusted in 15-degree steps. The multi-arm system also enables you to fold the mount for easy transport.
