Essentially a scaled-up version of our popular 70mm F/5.4 model, the Garrett® 100mm F/6.1 binocular telescope is designed with integrated 90º-angled 1.25-inch helical focusers, which makes it a great choice for amateur astronomy.
It weighs in at just 14.3 pounds - about half the weight of
competing designs, and only one pound heavier than our GT100-45. Here's
a binocular that will accept virtually all your 1.25" telescope
eyepieces and still be light enough for quick and easy setup. The
precision helical focusers are angled at 90º to make observing even at the zenith comfortable. This binocular offers the best features of a rich-field telescope – such
as the ability to easily vary magnification – without sacrificing the
three-dimensional viewing experience of a binocular.
The flat-field
objective lenses operate at an F/6.1 focal ratio, which is slow enough
to deliver high-contrast views of deep space objects and solar system
targets alike. From quick looks at the moon and brighter planets to
comet hunting, the Garrett® GT100-90 binocular telescope can take you
wherever you want to go. The binocular includes a set of standard 1.25" oculars, 18.5mm (63° AFOV) focal length, yielding 33x magnification and a true field of view of 1.9°. Additionally, you always have the ability to expand your magnification range by inserting virtually any 1.25" telescope eyepiece
from 40mm down to about 9mm. All air-to-glass surfaces in the
air-spaced achromatic objective lenses and the prisms are broadband
multi-coated, and the precisely-polished prisms are crafted from
high-index BaK4 optical glass. The cast-aluminum binocular body features
a durable and attractive glossy white finish and integrated retractable dewshields. Matching removable carrying handle included (not shown).
One special feature built into the 100mm F/6.1 binocular telescope is the unique twist-lock compression ring eyepiece holders
- this is essentially a scaled-down version of the system used on our
150mm binocular telescope, and it makes switching and properly centering
eyepieces a snap.
A dovetail base for our MRRF finder is now pre-installed on the left hand barrel of the binocular at no additional charge. For those looking for an affordable mount the Garrett Series 5000
is hard to beat. What's more, the Series 5000 is available as a package
with the GT100-90 for just $200 additional. You
can also use many heavy-duty tripods or parallelogram mounts with the
standard ¼-20 threaded mounting plate that's integrated into the design.
Included with each binocular telescope is a high-quality aluminum-trimmed carrying case.
Each binocular
telescope is individually tested for collimation as part of our 14-point
inspection, and any necessary adjustments are performed by a
highly-experienced technician. Collimation is adjustable by experienced
users. It is also covered by our two-year warranty and 30-day return
policy.
