    • Solid alt-azimuth mount with a unique asymmetrical design.
    • Sturdy steel tripod with an integrated fold-up accessory tray, an integrated smartphone adapter.
    • Built-in red LED flashlight.

    Special Features of the Inspire AZ100 

    The Inspire 1000AZ Refractor is easily the most simple set-up telescope in its entire class. Simply pop open the tripod legs, turn the lock knob on the accessory tray, and attach the telescope tube to the base using the quick release dovetail mount. You are now ready to observe! It really is that simple and clean, completely lacking in fuss or muss.

    There is an Integrated Smartphone Adapter built into the lens cap, a revolutionary move for refractors and telescopes in general. Using this adapter is very simple, using the following steps as laid out:

    • Place your smartphone against the rubberized friction surface on the outside of the cap so your camera is viewing through the imaging port.
    • Secure the smartphone using the two adjustable bungee cords.
    • The inside of the lens cap has a fitting that secures to your eyepiece using two set screws.
    • Voila! You are now ready to take high power images through the telescope.

    The mount has aRed LED Flashlight attached that can either be used to illuminate your accessory tray, or removed to provide night-vision friendly red light wherever you need it! It is a minor but very useful feature that further works to improve on the sheer, simple convenience of this fine quality telescope setup.

    This scope also comes with aFocus Micrometer. The focus micrometer is a numbered scale that indicates the focuser's position. It allows a quick return to a specific focus-point for specific targets such as a birdnest, infinity focus, etc.
