The DayStar Solar Scout 60mm is a dedicated hydrogen-alpha solar telescope engineered for both visual observation and solar imaging. Featuring a 60mm achromatic doublet with an internal 4.3x telecentric Barlow lens that achieves an effective f/15.5 focal ratio and 930mm focal length, this telescope delivers exceptional contrast and fine detail of solar features including sunspots, prominences, and filaments. The fixed, non-interchangeable Quark H-alpha filter provides a narrow doublestack bandpass (0.3-0.5 Å) without additional cost, while the helical front-focus mechanism ensures precise, slip-free focusing for both eyepiece and camera observation. With its Solar Bullet finder, integrated heating system, and USB power compatibility, the SS60-DS offers accessible entry-level hydrogen-alpha solar observation at an unprecedented price point.
