Two telescopes in one tube. The FS-60Q is an FS-60CB with the EX-CQ1.7X extender built in, giving you a longer F/10 setup for planets and eclipses, with the option to pull the extender and drop back to F/5.9 for deep sky work whenever you want.
Fluorite glass, doubled down on color. An air-spaced fluorite doublet objective with hard multicoatings keeps chromatic aberration in check, so planetary detail and eclipse photography come through crisp and true to color.
Long ratio, short learning curve. At F/10 and 600 mm focal length, the FS-60Q's longer ratio delivers the kind of chromatic correction that makes planetary observing and eclipse imaging genuinely memorable.
Flip to deep sky in seconds. Remove the 1.7X extender and the same scope becomes an FS-60CB at F/5.9 and 355 mm, so you're not locked into one focal length for the whole night.
Grab-and-go, for real. At just 1.6 kg and 550 mm long, the FS-60Q is small enough to travel anywhere your imaging plans take you.
Precision hardware from a name astrophotographers trust. Like everything else Takahashi builds, the FS-60Q is engineered to deliver night after night, whether you're at the eyepiece or behind the camera.
