QUESTAR SEVEN

Questar's commitment to quality on which it has built its worldwide reputation is immediately apparent in the superb resolution and mechanical precision of the Questar Seven. Those who want more aperture than that which the Questar 3.5 provides will marvel at the increased power and the quadrupled light grasp available with its larger offspring.

The Seven like it's smaller cousin the 3-½ inch Duplex telescope, is a fully-mounted astronomical telescope that is completely one man portable. The optical tube assembly easily disconnects from the rigid fork mount to facilitate transport, and provide increased versatility. With it's Fork Mount polar equatorial support one can employ it with table top tripod legs (as shown to the right), or in the field with Questar's Folding Pier (further specifications available on request) or another suitable field tripod.

The Questar 7 is available in several configurations for consumer astronomical uses, long distance cinematography, and for surveillance. These are outlined in this Questar section. The consumer oriented "Classic 7" resembles the Questar Standard 3-½ and Duplex models in that the Classic 7 incorporates the convenience features provided by the Questar Control Box.

The Astro 7 telescope was developed with the cooperation of Company Seven and this model deletes the Control Box thereby reducing cost, weight and overall length of the telescope. Furthermore, the Astro 7 as provided by Company Seven can accept a wider selection of optional accessories since it incorporates the industry standard 2 inch accessory back with no vignetting.
