Optional Dew Shield available - this is a matching, lightweight carbon fibre addition to help curb the onset of condensation in damp prone atmospheric climes. It is fitted or removed literally in less than a minute and greatly reduces the heavy dew precipitation which can so easily ruin what could be a classic imaging session.
Because of the unusual demand we had initially for the ODK14 we had to take it out of our sales catalogue until we caught up with orders. We are now able to offer this amazing telescope again. Amazing in performance for planets, the moon, globular clusters, galaxies, virtually anything in the sky you can think of, the ODK14 will capture it and present you with stunning visual images and, incredible photographs. Visit our Image Gallery here and enjoy some of the many images we have on file, you will be pleased you did.
The excellent Starlight Instruments FTF301B-A 3 inch dual speed focuser (pictured below) is available as an add on to enable a strong focusing platform for a wide range of cameras.
Mid way between the compact and very portable ODK12 and the heavier, ODK16, usually the ODK14 is observatory based. Still manageable by one person yet enough light grasp to carry out serious imaging and research on some of the more elusive objects on offer in the sky.
This is a serious telescope and you will be more than pleased you chose one the first time you point it to the night sky.
