The EACONN 70mm refractor telescope is a lightweight, travel-ready beginner scope that delivers clear views of the Moon, planets, and landscapes with simple setup.

Designed for children and adults new to stargazing, this compact refractor combines a 70mm objective lens and a 400mm focal length with fully coated glass to produce crisp images of celestial and terrestrial targets. The package includes two eyepieces, a 5x24 finderscope, an adjustable aluminum tripod and a phone adapter for easy astrophotography. Its azimuth mount and intuitive controls make it suitable for short family observing sessions or portable daytime viewing.

What optical performance can I expect from a 70mm objective?

The 70mm aperture gathers enough light to reveal lunar detail, bright star fields, and prominent planetary features under dark to moderately light-polluted skies. The 400mm focal length balances field of view and magnification, making targets easier to locate and track for beginners.

• Fully coated glass elements for improved contrast and reduced reflections
• 70mm objective for bright, steady images of the Moon and landscapes
• 400mm focal length gives moderate magnification with wide-enough views
• Suitable for both day and night observation of large targets

How do the eyepieces and magnification options work for learners?

The telescope comes with two interchangeable eyepieces—12.5mm and 20mm—allowing easy change of magnification without complex accessories. With the included eyepieces users can switch between lower-power, wider views and higher-power, closer looks to explore details or frame larger scenery.

• 12.5mm eyepiece for higher magnification and closer detail
• 20mm eyepiece for wider fields and simpler target acquisition
• Effective magnification range roughly 20x–32x depending on eyepiece
• 5x24 finderscope with crosshairs simplifies aiming and alignment

Can I take photos with my phone using this telescope?

Yes. A dedicated phone adapter is included to hold a smartphone over the eyepiece and let you align the camera lens with the optical tube. This lets you capture lunar shots, terrestrial scenes, or share live views with friends and family.

• Adjustable phone clamp fits most modern smartphones
• Allows manual focus adjustment on your phone for sharper images
• Quick to attach and remove for casual astrophotography or daytime shots
• Great for sharing discoveries and saving memorable views

How portable and easy to set up is the telescope for travel?

The scope is built with a lightweight aluminum tripod and an AZ (alt-azimuth) mount for straightforward pointing and movement. The tripod height is adjustable so users of different ages can observe comfortably in a variety of settings.

• Aluminum tripod extends from 12 inches to 38 inches for versatile positioning
• Tool-free assembly makes setup quick for backyard or roadside use
• Azimuth mount enables smooth left/right and up/down tracking of targets
