Kelvin: Optics for smartphones. Focus on What Matters!
Kelvin: Optics for smartphones. Focus on What Matters!

This digital project blurs the lines between the convenience of mobile photography and the power of professional optics.

The Levenhuk Kelvin Nova BASE 60/500 Phototelescope is your personal guide to the Moon’s surface. It will show you the most famous craters like Tycho, Clavius, Copernicus, and Plato. You will also see lesser-known ones such as the trio of Maginus, Kirch, and Catharina. With this instrument, you will not only see the terrain but also examine its details: lunar terraces, peaks, fissures, and ridges. You can immediately capture these beautiful views by taking photos or videos using only your smartphone.

The Levenhuk Kelvin Nova BASE 60/500 can also be pointed at the planets. It will show you that these are not just dots in the sky. Instead, you will be able to make out Saturn’s shape, see Jupiter’s large moons, and spot Venus’s crescent. All of this can be done without any training or preparation. The mount’s pan handle makes the phototelescope as easy to use as possible, allowing you to aim at the target just like a regular spotting scope.

The image in the eyepiece is “right-side-up” and familiar to the eye, rather than inverted as in other refractors. Therefore, with the Nova BASE 60/500, you can observe and photograph not only space but also mountains, trees, wildlife, and birds.

The kit includes a Bluetooth remote shutter for your smartphone. It helps you take photos without touching the telescope. This way, you will protect your valuable images from blurring and smudging.

The design is compact and lightweight, and the phototelescope assembles quickly and easily, making the Levenhuk Kelvin Nova BASE 60/500 an excellent choice for beginner astronomers and mobile photographers of any age.
