SAXON 606R Refractor Telescope

A:

Unfortunately there isn't any telescope with wifi capabilities that we know of.

If you'd like to view images from a scope on your screen, you can get any refracting telescope (http://www.ozscopes.com.au/telescope/refractor-telescope) and get a separate imaging kit such as the Celestron NexImage kit (http://www.ozscopes.com.au/celestron-neximage-solar-system-imaging-kit.html). The camera replaces the eyepiece and connects to a computer via USB so the image can be viewed on a computer screen. However this is the only one we stock that allows you to do that, and as it's meant more for astronomy the magnification is very high and won't be very suitable for terrestrial viewing.

Alternatively you can get a spotting scope (http://www.ozscopes.com.au/telescope/spotting-scope) or refracting telescope and use your own video camera or DSLR with video capabilities by placing the camera near the eyepiece using an adapter and connecting the camera to your computer via USB to project the image through.

Unfortunately those are the few options you have for achieving such a thing. There are other imaging kits out there from other brands as well that will let you do the same thing as the Celestron nexImage kit I mentioned above, but I believe no telescopes currently have any wifi that'll let you view the image on your computer wirelessly.

If you are after a scope for land viewing, then a spotting scope is a better option. Our full range of spotting scopes are listed on our website here:

Generally, spotting scopes have a fairly standard magnification range of 20-60 magnification. Some are more, some are less. The aperture (lens) size of the telescope is measured in mm. The bigger the scopes aperture, the wider your viewing area and the greater the light collection capability. Aperture options normally range from 50 - 100mm.

From there, the biggest difference in price is to do with the quality of the glass used in the optics. Higher quality glass will produce a much clearer, sharper image.

An excellent mid-range spotting scope is the Celestron Ultima 80 20-60x80 - 45° Angled Spotting Scope with Bak-4 Prisms. You can find it on our website for $535.00 here:

The Barska 20 - 60 x 60 Blackhawk - Angled Eyepiece Spotting Scope is also a good option as it comes with a table top tripod. The quality and viewing area are a few step down from the Ultima 80. You can find it on our website for $399.95 here:

It is important to note, that unlike with telescopes, spotting scopes do not come with a tripod. You will need to look at purchasing one separately. We have a standard Optex tripod on our website for $149.95 here:

We also have an Optex Heavy Duty tripod on our website for $219.95 here:
