I thought I would switch from my 2600 camera to an older but smaller pixel 183 colour camera and shoot M31 for just over 2 hours. The results were impressive and the tiny pixels ultimately showed just how sharp this scope actually is!

I just tried out my dealer supplied tilter and everything is great!

The newly revised Touptek D60 is built like a tank, precise, very well put together and works flawlessly.
The solid construction and precise focuser allows for all accessories to work well without any issues.
The images are clean and the new tilter is great to remove any slight tilt. I am impressed and looking forward to more imaging with this nice little telescope.

Das Hope ist relativ schwer, aber dafür gut verarbeitet. Ein Kritikpunkt ist der Feststellknopf des Rotators. Wenn man den OAG-L montiert, lässt sich dieser nicht 360° drehen, da diese Feststellschraube im Weg ist.
Ansonsten bin ich bisher sehr zufrieden.

The Hope D60 shines not only for its excellent design, but also for the manufacturing quality. Even though I only used it for a night so far, it could produce very even fields alongside with a mirrorless FF camera. I was truly surprised when I realized I could produce very decent images even without taking flat frames. It really looks promising, but time will tell!

Aunque aún no he podido probarlo, se ve un telescopio muy robusto y con materiales de buena calidad. Volveré a reseñar con las primeras pruebas

Premium Telescope for High-Quality Deep-Sky Imaging
Engineered for deep-sky perfection, ToupTek HOPE D60 redefines portable astrophotography. Featuring a professional 5-element Planar APO system and an ultra-fast f/4.66 focal ratio, it delivers diffraction-limited clarity with pinpoint stars straight out of the box. Its built-in field flattener corrects field curvature without requiring an external flattener, while a precision dual-speed focuser ensures effortless control. HOPE D60 seamlessly unites beginner simplicity with masterclass imaging power.
HOPE D60 Advanced 5-Element PAPO Optical Design
Driven by a 5-element PAPO design, HOPE D60 eliminates chromatic aberration, distortion, and vignetting. Rigorously verified by optical metrics, it delivers pinpoint stars across full-frame sensors.
HOPE D60 Key Features
Native Flat-Field & 44mm Image Circle
Delivers full-frame coverage with edge-to-edge sharp stars; the built-in flattener eliminates back-focus calculations or extra accessories, achieving optimal focus at a standard 55mm connection distance.
How to Adjust Framing and Tilt with the HOPE D60 RotaTilter
View adjustment steps
1.Angle Adjustment:
Loosen the top knob, then rotate the front black adapter ring to adjust the framing angle.
2.Tilt Adjustment:
By turning these screws, the distance between the four corners of the sensor and the telescope's image plane can be finely tuned to achieve an ideal imaging state.
Viewed from the sensor side towards the telescope side:
Counter-clockwise: Sensor moves away from the telescope
Clockwise: Sensor moves closer to the telescope

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to purchase a separate field flattener or calculate complex back-focus?
No. HOPE D60 features an integrated field flattener that provides a flat 44mm full-frame image circle out of the box, requiring only the standard 55mm connection distance.
Is HOPE D60 suitable for beginners in astrophotography?
Yes. Its native flat-field design, standard connection distance, and dual-speed focuser eliminate complex optical adjustments, allowing beginners to achieve professional results easily.
How portable is HOPE D60 for field transport?
With its dew shield fully retracted, the compact optical tube measures just 255mm in length, making it easy to store and pack for mobile field sessions.
Can HOPE D60 be used for daytime terrestrial photography?
Yes. When paired with a DSLR or mirrorless camera, HOPE D60 functions as a high-resolution telephoto lens for both daily terrestrial photography and deep-sky imaging.
Which electronic auto focusers (EAF) are natively supported?
HOPE D60 features native mounting support for popular electronic focusers, including the ToupTek Astro AAF, ZWO EAF, Oasis, and GEMINI focusers.
