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. ___________________________________________________ |
