LS60MT Enhanced Kit - 60mm Universal Day & Night Modular Telescope

The LS60MT Imaging Kit upgrades the entry-level package with two key improvements for observers ready to capture the Sun. The B1200 blocking filter doubles the clear aperture to 12mm, providing the back-focus clearance and illumination circle that imaging sensors demand. The 7.2-21.5mm zoom eyepiece replaces the fixed 16mm, letting you frame full-disk views or push in tight on active regions without changing glass.

The same professional-grade ED doublet optics. The same Doppler True pressure tuning. The same day-to-night versatility. Now optimized for the observer who wants to capture what they see.

What You'll See

Everything the LS60MT reveals at <0.65Å bandpass, now with the optical clearance to put it on a sensor. The B1200's 12mm clear aperture ensures the full image circle reaches your camera without vignetting, while the zoom eyepiece lets you frame the exact field of view you need: full disk for timelapse sequences, tight crop for active region detail. Visually, the zoom eyepiece transforms the observing experience. Scan the full disk at low power to survey prominence activity and filament structure, then twist to higher magnification and resolve individual features in real time. No eyepiece swaps, no refocusing, no missed moments of good seeing.

Why This Package

If you are ready to start capturing the Sun or if you want the convenience of a zoom eyepiece for visual observing, this kit delivers both. The B1200 is the blocking filter that serious solar imagers choose: 12mm of clear aperture means your sensor sees the full, unvignetted image circle. The zoom eyepiece is a game-changer for solar observing sessions. Conditions change, targets move, and active regions evolve. Having continuous magnification adjustment without changing glass means you are always at the right power for what is happening on the Sun. Near-parfocal design keeps focus close across the zoom range.
