The Levenhuk Skyline BASE MAK 80/850 AZ-M is the ultimate universal choice for beginner amateur astronomers seeking the perfect balance between a compact build and high optical power. Based on advanced optical design of Maksutov-Cassegrain with an 80 mm lens diameter and a focal length of 850 mm, this telescope delivers high-resolution and high-contrast images without chromatic aberrations. It is extremely portable and easy to use both indoors and outdoors, making it a magical tool for your first contact with the universe.

With a maximum useful magnification reaching 160x, the telescope is ideal for detailed study of the lunar surface, allowing you to explore famous craters (such as Tycho, Copernicus, and Plato), mountain ranges, and dark "maria." Under good conditions, it reveals Jupiter's disk, its main belts, bright Galilean satellites, as well as Saturn's rings or nearby star clusters (Pleiades, Hyades). An important advantage is that it provides correctly oriented images (up-down and left-right), making it excellent for terrestrial observations of nature.

The optical components of the Skyline BASE MAK are made from top-quality glass with double protective coating: an aluminum coating that significantly increases reflectivity and a broadband anti-reflective coating that eliminates unwanted reflections across a wide range of wavelengths. The optical tube is mounted on a practical aluminum support, which features a large ergonomic handling grip with a locking mechanism. For absolute control and precise targeting, the system incorporates two specialized micrometric adjustment screws that allow smooth corrections.

The support comes with a durable aluminum tripod with adjustable height from 56 cm to 150.5 cm, suitable for every user. The folding and transport model of the set is exemplary, as it includes two independent protective cases: one for the optical tube and one for the tripod, ensuring safety during transportation. The comprehensive packaging includes all necessary accessories for immediate use: a 6x21 optical finder, 10 mm and 20 mm eyepieces, a 90° image erecting prism, as well as a practical smartphone adapter to take photos with your mobile phone.
