Refractor Telescope Bresser Optics CLASSIC 70/350

The BRESSER Classic 70/350 Refractor Telescope is a compact, lightweight refractor designed for sky observation, landscape and wildlife viewing. The 70 mm objective and 350 mm focal length provide a rich-field view that is suitable for large open star clusters, the Milky Way and terrestrial observation. The telescope is supplied with a 90° erecting prism (1.25" / 31.7 mm) that produces an upright, correctly oriented image, and it includes an adjustable field tripod for comfortable height changes.

Advantages

The telescope is easy to set up and transport thanks to its lightweight aluminium tube and tripod and a total weight of approximately 2.3 kg. Its short focal length delivers a wide field of view, making it well suited for observing large sky regions and extended objects. The included erecting prism enables convenient terrestrial use with an upright image. The tripod’s adjustable height (approx. 73–160 cm) improves viewing comfort.

Suitable for

• Beginners and hobby astronomers seeking a portable refractor
• Wide-field sky observation (open clusters, Milky Way)
• Terrestrial viewing: landscapes and wildlife
• Travel and field trips where compact equipment is required

How to use

Set the tripod on stable ground and extend the legs to a comfortable height. Attach the aluminium tube to the tripod mount and secure it according to the manual. Insert the 1.25" eyepiece or the supplied erecting prism into the focuser and lock it in place. Point the telescope to the target area and use the focuser to achieve a sharp image. For terrestrial observation use the 90° erecting prism to obtain an upright view; for deep-sky targets remove the prism if a wider field is desired.

Usage recommendations

For best results choose locations with low light pollution and stable air (good seeing). Allow the telescope to reach outdoor temperature before high-magnification observations. Transport the instrument in a padded case and avoid sudden shocks to preserve optical alignment.
