80mm White Light Solar Scope

The iOptron 80mm White Light Solar Scope is a compact and powerful refractor designed for solar astronomy, utilizing a thread-on solar filter to enable safe solar viewing. The removable screw-in solar filter blocks harmful UV and IR radiation while reducing virtually all of the intense light across the entire visual spectrum from the sun, allowing for safe solar viewing of surface features such as sunspots and super granules. With the filter removed once night falls, it can be used to observe the moon and other nighttime objects. The OTA features a doublet achromatic lens system that is fully multi-coated to produce bright and sharp high-contrast images with accurate color rendition across a distortion-free field of view.
