What are the basic types of telescopes for sale?
If you have ever wondered about the different types of telescopes for sale, then there a few simple designs to keep in mind.
Refractor Telescopes for sale:
The basic refractor telescope utilizes the traditional telescopic lenses at either end of a long tube, which magnifies the projected image into the eyepiece so that you can see distant objects up close. When you are looking for refractor telescopes for sale, they are easily distinguished by having the viewing eyepiece at the lower end of the tube, and the light gathering aperture lens at the top end of the telescope.
Reflector Telescopes for sale:
The reflector telescope has a very distinctive appearance being a rather squat shaped telescope tube, with a very wide aperture, and the viewing eyepiece coming out of the side of the tube. This happens because the magnifying optic inside a reflector telescope is actually a mirror, which reflects the image internally in the tube to an internal focusing lens, which displays the image at the eyepiece. The reflector design allows much larger telescopes to be packaged into smaller sized and cheaper telescopes for sale.
Cassegrain Telescopes for sale:
The so called Cassegrain Telescope is a hybrid design of telescope that uses a combination of mirrors and lenses to produce the best images for the user. There are many variations on this generic design, such as the Schmidt-Cassegrain or the Cassegrain-Maksutov, which are basically design variations depending on the specific purpose of the telescope.
Equatorial Telescopes for sale:
Sometimes we see telescopes described as equatorial, which is actually a description of the mounting arrangement. An equatorial mount refers to the way a telescope can be mounted on a tripod, allowing for azimuth and Altazimuth adjustments of the telescope. The telescope mount is designed to allow for small and accurate adjustments of the direction of the telescope so that you can focus precisely on the target.
Dobsonian Telescopes for sale:
Some of the popular Orion telescopes are described as Dobsonian, and again, this refers to the design of the telescope mounting. A Dobsonian mount allows the telescope to freely swivel around 360 degrees, whilst accurately adjusting the up and down angle with precision.
Everything you need to know about telescopes for sale

Measured either in inches or millimeters, it is important to understand what role the aperture size means in relation to buying a telescope. Basically, when it comes to telescopes for sale, size does matter! The larger the aperture size, the larger the telescope, and the higher the price.
