The Inspire 100AZ features the largest aperture in the Inspire family line and its short tube offers a wider field of view perfectly suited for larger, fainter deep sky objects. This achromatic refractor with a 4-inch/100mm aperture and a reasonably short focal length of 660mm is designed to be used at home by beginners for planets, the moon and deep sky objects. Inspire features fully coated glass optics, a solid altazimuth mount with a unique asymmetrical design, a sturdy steel tripod with integrated fold-up accessory tray, an integrated smartphone adapter, built-in red LED flashlight, large projected reticle finderscope, erect image optics, and a focus micrometer for easily returning to the same focus point. With the erect image star diagonal it makes the optical tube ideal for using as a spotting scope during the day.
