The Telrad finder is the original and best selling reflex finderscope. This simple, functional and accurate finder has a large easy to see screen with illuminated red circles. The Telrad finder projects three red rings spaced at 4, 2, and 1/2 degree in diameter. These rings can be used to star-hop from one object to another. If a galaxy is 8 degrees away from a star, you simply count two 4-degree circles.
Supplied with a universal base plate that can be attached via screw holes or the included sticky pads.
