SV501P is a complete refractor package designed for portability and immediate use, combining a 70mm aperture with a fast 400mm focal length. Its F5.7 optical system captures wide fields of view, ideal for sweeping the Milky Way or observing large star clusters. The entire kit weighs just 2950g and includes a K 20mm eyepiece, a 5x24 finder scope, and a travel backpack, making it a true grab-and-go instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003e70mm Aperture and F5.7 Optics for Wide-Field Views\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe telescope's optical system is built around a 70mm objective lens with a 400mm focal length. This combination produces a fast F5.7 focal ratio, which delivers a very wide true field of view, allowing you to frame large celestial objects like the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) or the Pleiades (M45) in their entirety with the included 20mm eyepiece. The multi-coated lenses ensure bright, high-contrast images, whether you are observing star fields or using the scope for daytime nature watching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eA Complete 20x Ready-to-Observe Kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis package includes everything needed for your first night out. The K 20mm eyepiece provides a 20x magnification, perfect for wide-field scanning.

SVBONY SV520 Astronomy Telescope combines a 90mm objective lens and an f\/8.9 focal ratio to deliver clear, high-contrast views of the Moon and planets. Its achromatic doublet lens, made from K9 and ZF4 glass, is capable of resolving details down to the 1.33\" Dawes Limit, making it an ideal starting point for celestial observation. The entire system is supported by a stainless steel tripod and an alt-azimuth mount with worm gear fine adjustment, providing the stability and control needed to track objects smoothly across the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e90mm f\/8.9 Optics: Capturing Lunar and Planetary Detail\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SV520's optical system is built around a 90mm air-spaced doublet objective, a significant step up in light-gathering power from typical entry-level telescopes. This aperture is large enough to reveal details like the cloud bands of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, and countless craters on the Moon. The f\/8.9 focal ratio provides sharp images with well-controlled chromatic aberration, which is further enhanced by Fully Multi-Coated (FMC) optics and edge-blackened lenses that maximize contrast by reducing internal reflections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlt-Azimuth Mount: Stable Tracking with Dual-Axis Slow Motion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA steady mount is critical for high-magnification viewing, and the SV520 includes a robust alt-azimuth mount with worm gear drives on both axes.

You place it in the focuser before your eyepiece to triple the magnification. For example, if you have a 25mm eyepiece, adding the Barlow will give you the view of a much shorter ~8.3mm eyepiece, which is useful for getting closer looks at planets and lunar details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"DAV-accordion-Q\"\u003eHow does the smartphone mount help me find objects with the SV520?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion-A\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smartphone mount attaches to the finder scope bracket. By running a planetarium app on your phone (like Stellarium or SkySafari), you can get a real-time map of the sky.
