High-quality telescope for beginners, but also for experienced hobby astronomers

The Starquest DX series consists of fully equipped telescope packages with a selection of high-quality, proven Sky-Watcher optics and the new, precise StarQuest DX Deluxe mount, after which this series was named. These telescopes are particularly suitable for beginners, but also for more experienced amateur astronomers who do not want to compromise on quality.
