The Vixen A81M achromatic refractor provides pinpoint images of the stars as well as sharp images of the Moon and planets.

The A81M is easy to maintain and is an excellent choice for beginners and experts. The A81M is fully manufactured in Japan and has a long history of satisfied customers.
The Advanced Polaris equatorial mount is ideal for beginners, but also for more experienced observers who are looking for a light travel mount.
The Advanced Polaris not only has a very stylish design, but also some powerful features under the hood, as the illustration on the right shows. An aluminium gearwheel with a 58.4mm diameter and 144 teeth allows fine adjustments to the axes, as well as 9mm diameter worm shafts, each supported by two bearings - that’s precision engineering at its best!
What is special about the Advanced Polaris is the adjustable slipper clutch: without having to unlock anything, you can simply move your telescope in the direction in which you want to point it. The exact centering of the eyepiece is then done using rotary knobs. The slipper clutch works even if your Advanced Polaris is equipped with motors (AP-SM). This allows you to quickly and intuitively navigate the sky.
In order to align the mount to the north, you can use either a polar finder scope, or the compass of the of the Vixen Polarie photo mount. The Advanced Polaris has connectors for both options. The compass has the advantage that you do not need to bend down under the mount, and also don’t need a view of the Polar Star for alignment. The polar finder and compass can be found under “recommended accessories”. In summary: thanks to the extensive accessories available, the mount can be enhanced to suit all your needs.
The APP-TL130 tripod was developed for the Advanced Polaris mount, it it is also compatible with the Porta II, GP and fork mounts from Vixen.
The APP-TL130 tripod guarantees both portability and stability for astronomical observations. Retracted it measures only 60 centimeters and is therefore an ideal companion for people on the go. The tripod can be extended to a maximum height of 130 centimeters. The tips of the tripod legs have a retractable rubber cover, which protects the floor from scratches.
