Celestron Travel Scope 70 DX Portable Telescope with Smartphone Adaptor

Celestron Travel Scope 70 DX Portable Telescope with Smartphone Adaptor

Experience the best of both worlds-day and night observing-with the versatile Travel Scope 70 DX refractor telescope. It comes complete with a full-height tripod and a wide range of accessories, including a smartphone adapter for capturing photos and videos directly through the eyepiece. Everything conveniently fits into a durable custom backpack, making it ready to travel wherever your adventures lead.

Whether you bring it on a camping getaway or set it up for a spontaneous stargazing session in your backyard, the Travel Scope 70 DX is quick and simple to assemble. Even beginners can put together the telescope and accessories in just minutes. The adjustable tripod legs let you set the perfect height or even place the telescope on raised surfaces such as a table.

At night, this compact refractor delivers clear views of the Moon, planets, star clusters, and bright nebulae like Orion, as well as galaxies such as Andromeda. During the day, it doubles as a powerful spotting scope for birdwatching, observing wildlife, scanning boats on the water, or even spotting distant whales. Weighing just 1.5kg, this lightweight kit is designed for effortless portability.

Smartphone Adapter with Bluetooth Shutter

Easily capture stunning photos and videos of the Moon, planets, or terrestrial targets using the included smartphone adapter. Its lightweight, rigid frame secures your phone firmly to the eyepiece, using adjustable knobs to lock it in place. The eyepiece magnification lets your phone record detailed shots you can share instantly.

To make imaging even easier, Celestron includes a Bluetooth shutter release for Android and iOS devices. This allows you to trigger the phone’s camera remotely, preventing vibrations when taking photos. (Note: bulky or oversized phone cases may need to be removed to fit properly in the adapter.)

Manual Alt-Azimuth Mount

The Travel Scope 70 DX is equipped with a smooth Alt-Az control system and pan handle, making it intuitive to use. Just like a standard photo tripod, you can move the scope up, down, left, or right with ease, and smoothly track your subject across the sky or landscape.

Complete Set of Deluxe Accessories

This telescope comes fully equipped with a suite of useful optical accessories:

   ➜  Two eyepieces (20mm & 10mm) for low- and high-power viewing

   ➜  Erect image diagonal for comfortable, right-side-up views

   ➜  Finderscope for locating and centering objects quickly

   ➜  2x Barlow lens to double magnification power

   ➜  1.25” Moon filter to reduce glare and boost lunar surface contrast

Together, these accessories give you the flexibility to enjoy both celestial and terrestrial observing with clarity and comfort.

Custom Travel Backpack

The included backpack is designed to fit the telescope, tripod, eyepieces, and accessories securely, ensuring everything stays organized and protected while on the move.
