WHETHER YOU NEED A QUESTAR

If you live in an apartment - you need the window-sill-size Questar.

If your wife is saying "Get that contraption out of here!" - you need the easy-storing Questar.

If you are tired of refractors' rainbows - you need the color-free Questar.

If your reflector is always out of adjustment - you need the permanently aligned Questar.

If your solar device warps your optics and cooks your eyepieces - you need the external-solar-filter Questar.

if you want the utmost in fine resolution, with which to tackle Dawes' limit and indifferent air - you need the wonderful catadioptric Questar.

If your finder is hard to reach - you need the built-in-finder Questar.

If you haven't a built-in negative achromat - you need the finger-flickamplifier Questar.

If you haven't an equatorial telescope with circles, clamp and smooth slow motions - you need the elegantly mounted Questar.

If you haven't automatic following - you need the smooth, electric Questar.
