Orion CC6 6" Classical Cassegrain Telescope

hi I'm Ken with Orion telescopes and binoculars and this is the Orion 6-inch f12 classical Cassegrain a little bit different than your average Schmitt Catherine and I will show you why we'll go through some of the features and show you why I think this is a nice advantage over some of those other designs and what the benefits are alright well first of all are the optics themselves six-inch f12 is a little bit longer than your average six inch f10 Casa Grande armée Casa Grande this has an 1836 millimeter focal length so nice high magnification good for lunar and planetary viewing and imaging and if you're gonna be imaging some of the deep sky objects it is f12 so it's all but slower than a standard f10 but with the newer CCD camera CMOS cameras that are very sensitive and you stick to some of the brighter more compact targets like globular clusters planetary nebula those things actually
