7" (180mm) f/8 Maksutov-Newtonian Optical Tube Assembly

INTES-PLUS and INTES-MICRO of Moscow are specialist manufacturers of Maksutov-Cassegrain and Maksutov-Newtonian astronomical telescopes, which are aimed at advanced astronomers seeking the highest standards of equipment available.
These telescopes are individually and painstakingly handcrafted by highly skilled optical technicians to extremely strict optical and mechanical tolerances, and have gained an outstanding reputation amongst the specialist astronomical community for offering a range of professional quality products, providing high-performance, high-contrast, high-resolution imaging for astrophotography and visual (deep-sky and planetary) applications.
The MAKSUTOV-CASSEGRAIN models excel for high power, high resolution Lunar and Planetary work. Their compact tubes make them particularly convenient to transport and set up.
The MAKSUTOV-NEWTONIAN design combines the best features from a Newtonian Reflector and a Maksutov-Cassegrain to create a telescope design that provides truly stunning image quality, similar to those achieved with Apochromatic Refractors, but at a fraction of the cost.
