Telescope Levenhuk Blitz 60 Base Refractor 120x Grey

The Levenhuk Blitz 60 BASE refractor telescope is intended for beginner astronomers and hobbyists. With a 60 mm objective and achromatic glass optics with anti-reflective coating, it produces clear images of the Moon and terrestrial landscapes. The kit includes several eyepieces and a 3x Barlow lens, and the instrument is mounted on a fork azimuth mount with a screw-controlled vertical axis for precise pointing. The adjustable aluminum tripod with accessory tray provides stability and portability, making this model a ready-to-use option for those starting in astronomy.

Advantages

This Levenhuk Blitz 60 BASE offers a compact, lightweight design and optics optimized for sharp lunar and terrestrial views. The achromatic glass objective with anti-reflective coating reduces glare and improves contrast. The included eyepieces (4 mm, 12.5 mm, 20 mm) and 3x Barlow lens expand magnification options up to 120x without the need for additional accessories. The fork azimuth mount with screw control and the adjustable aluminum tripod deliver straightforward setup and stable tracking of targets.

Suitable for

• Beginners and children starting in amateur astronomy
• Observing the Moon and lunar features
• Daytime terrestrial viewing and landscape observation
• Viewing bright planets and some bright deep-sky objects (limited detail)
• Educational use and gift for science enthusiasts

How to use

Mount the telescope on the adjustable aluminum tripod and secure the accessory tray. Attach the optical tube to the fork azimuth mount and use the vertical-axis screw to point the telescope toward the target. Start with the lowest-power eyepiece (20 mm) for a wider field of view, then switch to higher magnifications (12.5 mm, 4 mm or the 3x Barlow) to examine details on the Moon or planets. Make fine adjustments with the mount’s screw control and refocus as needed. For terrestrial use, ensure stable tripod placement and avoid direct heat sources that can distort the image.

Usage recommendations

For best results, observe from a stable location away from strong artificial lights and heat sources. Use the lowest magnification to locate objects, then increase magnification as seeing conditions allow. Store the telescope dry and protected when not in use; clean lenses only with appropriate optical cleaning tools.
