INTES MICRO
 7" f/10 ALTER M703 OTA


 A scaled up version of the very popular INTES MICRO ALTER M 603. This 180mm aperture Maksutov has a fully baffled tube (7 internal knife-edge baffles) and high transmission multicoatings on all of the optical surfaces. Thus, this Maksutov has much brighter images and more resolving power than any other of the well known Maksutov Cassegrains in the 7-inch aperature range. With a total tube weight of only 14.1 pounds (7 kg), it is still an easily transportable telescope, requiring a smaller (and less costly) mount than its competitors.A scaled up version of the very popular INTES MICRO ALTER M 603.
