Celestron Omni XLT 120mm Refractor Telescope

The Celestron Omni XLT 120mm Refractor Telescope delivers 120mm aperture and 1000mm focal length at f/8.3 for serious astronomy enthusiasts. StarBright XLT optical coatings enhance light transmission and clarity across the view. Aspheric shaping technology and hand-figuring produce an image virtually free of spherical aberration. The package includes a 6x30 LER finderscope for comfortable targeting.

Compatibility and Setup Requirements

Verify that the 1.75" stainless steel tripod legs suit your observing surface and available space. The German Equatorial mount requires polar alignment before tracking celestial objects accurately. Optional dual-axis motor drive (#93522) and polar axis finder (#94221) are sold separately for astrophotography use. Ensure you can manage the assembly and weight of the complete system.

Sustained Observation Performance

The HD CG-4 German Equatorial mount provides smooth tracking and stable viewing during long observation sessions. Vibration dampening from the robust tripod and center tray maintains image steadiness at high magnifications up to 283x. StarBright XLT coatings preserve consistent light transmission throughout extended use. The optical design supports reliable performance for both visual astronomy and guided astrophotography.

Questions about this item

What accessories come with the Omni XLT 120mm refractor and what must be purchased separately?

The telescope includes a 6x30 LER finderscope and the HD CG-4 German equatorial mount on an adjustable tripod with 1.75" steel legs. Optional extras are the dual-axis motor drive (part 93522) and polar axis finder (part 94221).

Which aperture and focal ratio define this specific Omni XLT model?

This model has a 120mm aperture and a focal ratio of f/8.3, giving a 1000mm focal length.

What does the 283x magnification figure mean when I am actually observing?

283x is the highest useful magnification the 120mm optics can deliver; it suits planetary and lunar detail but requires steady seeing and a suitable eyepiece.
