When you mix a group of experienced solar optical designers, engineers,  and enthusiasts and a commitment to energizing the solar viewing and photography hobby you end up with a group who is commited to advancing technological design of solar viewing instruments with a pride in quality and a promise of the highest level of customer care and service.

Lunt Solar Systems is based in Tucson, Arizona where the sun is their main focus.  Their new products range from and entry-level 35mm Hydrogen alpha telescope to a 200mm solar dedicated Newtonian.

We are using the 60mm H-alpha Lunt Solar scope as well as the 60mm Calcium-K Solar scope during out daytime solar viewing programs in the Observatory.  We find the quality of these telescopes is superb--especially with their budget-minded price tags. Come on by and give one a try.  A word of warning, though.  Solar viewing is ADDICTIVE!!!
