These 120mm catadioptric models have the same focal length as the TAL-1 but a telescope tube which is much shorter and compact achieved by a tele-negative lens built into the focusser, allowing for greater portability. Apart from this difference, these models boast the same specification and almost the same standard equipment as the TAL-1/1M.

Manufactured to very high standards of optical and mechanical engineering, the TAL-1 combines both excellent optical performance together with an extremely robust and thoughtfully designed mechanical layout. Delightfully smooth slow-motion controls make tracking a pleasure. A rock-steady pedestal stand ensures complete operating stability, superior to that of any tripod. Supplied with useful accessories including a sun projection screen for safe solar imaging, five light filters and a camera mounting bracket for deep sky photography. An incredible package with an unequalled combination of performance, value and equipment levels than any rival telescope of this size. Whether viewing the craters of the Moon, the rings of Saturn or beyond, for someone taking a serious step into this fascinating hobby the TAL-1 cannot be overlooked!!

First-class precision instruments based on Klevzov's original advanced optical system design, for the advanced amateur astronomer who desires high resolution and excellent light passing power in a highly portable telescope. The Klevzov-Cassegrain non-aspherical system presents a radical new form of catadioptric telescope that combines the compactness of a Schmidt-Cassegrain with similar enviable high resolution image quality and contrast of modern Maksutov designs. Klevsov's revolutionary catadioptric design employs a sub-aperture meniscus correcting lens, combined with a Mangin mirror-lens secondary. Their fast focal ratios, flat field and excellent correction of coma, spherical aberration and astigmatism (14 micron star images at a distance of 10mm from the optical axis!!) makes these superb instruments for astrophotography, as well as for the observation of planets and deep-sky objects.
