FAQs

Is the ToupTek Hope D60 good for imaging or visual?

The D60 works for both. It’s a compact refractor with good colour correction, so it’s a solid grab-and-go visual scope and pairs nicely with small-sensor cameras for widefield imaging.

Which cameras pair well with the D60?

ToupTek planetary cameras for lunar/planetary work and ToupTek cooled cameras (or Player One equivalents) for deep-sky. A lightweight equatorial mount is recommended for long exposures.

Do I need extra adapters?

Usually a simple T-ring/adaptor chain to reach focus with your camera. If you’re unsure, tell us your camera model and we’ll map the exact spacers.

Can I use standard 1.25" filters?

Yes — most common 1.25" filters and filter wheels will work. For cooled imaging, many users move to 36 mm or 2" filters to avoid vignetting.

What targets suit the D60 best?

Widefield nebulae and clusters, the Moon, and bright planets. For small galaxies, pair it with a camera with smaller pixels or consider a longer-focal-length scope.
