Weekend Smart Scope Sale
Two Smart Telescopes.
One Crazy Weekend Deal.
The DWARF II is down to $297. The DWARF 3 is $569. Both include free shipping. Both end June 30.
It's a perfect summer Saturday. The Moon is waxing toward full, the Milky Way is rising, and right now two of the best smart telescopes on the market are at the lowest prices we've ever listed. Whether you're brand new to astrophotography or ready to step up, there's a DWARF with your name on it.
🔥 The Crazy Deal
DWARF II Solar Elite — $297 CAD
Let's be direct: $297 for the DWARF II Solar Elite is a remarkable price. That's $252 off retail — 46% — for a complete smart telescope system that includes solar filters, a free mini tripod, and free shipping. This is the best entry into smart astrophotography we've ever offered.
DWARF II Smart Telescope
Solar Elite Edition
The world's most portable smart telescope — now with solar capability included
The DWARF II sets up in minutes, connects to your phone via WiFi, and handles the rest — tracking, stacking, focusing — automatically. Dual cameras (telephoto + wide-angle) let you locate targets quickly. Sony IMX415 Starvis sensor. 8MP. Replaceable 5600mAh battery. Point it at the Moon tonight, the Milky Way after midnight, or the Sun any afternoon. At $297, this is the gift you buy for yourself.
⬆️ The Upgrade
DWARF 3 Dual Camera — $569 CAD
If the DWARF II is the brilliant entry point, the DWARF 3 is where serious smart telescope imaging begins. Larger aperture, a Sony IMX678 Starvis 2 sensor, three built-in optical filters including a dual-band nebula filter — and a February 2026 firmware update that added Sky Finder, Star Trails mode, and Stellar Studio built-in image processing.
DWARF 3 Dual Camera
Smart Telescope
35mm APO lens · Sony IMX678 Starvis 2 · 3 built-in filters · Sky Finder · IP54
The dual-band filter alone is a game-changer — it targets H-Alpha, OIII, and H-Beta wavelengths to cut through light pollution on emission nebulae. That's a capability that normally requires separate filter purchases. The DWARF 3 has it built in. This is the scope that turns a summer backyard into a real imaging platform.

💡 First smart telescope? The DWARF II at $297 is the obvious call — it's hard to argue with 46% off, and the solar filters open up an entirely new type of observing. Upgrading from an older model or want the best performance? The DWARF 3's dual-band filter and larger aperture are worth the extra $272.
🌙 Tonight's Sky — Saturday June 24
Waxing Gibbous Moon · Full Strawberry Moon in 5 Days
Tonight's Moon is waxing gibbous — bright, detailed, and rising in the southeast as darkness falls. It's one of the best nights of the month to image the Moon. The DWARF II or DWARF 3 will give you stunning crater detail in minutes. And the Full Strawberry Moon arrives June 29 — the first full Moon of summer. Set up this weekend and you'll be perfectly ready for it.
After midnight: the Milky Way rises in the south. Both DWARF models handle deep-sky targets beautifully once the Moon sets.

This Weekend Is the Time 🌌
$297 for the DWARF II Solar Elite is a deal I don't think we'll see again at this price. If you've been on the fence about a smart telescope, this is your sign. Both DWARF deals end June 30 — take the weekend to decide, but don't wait past Monday.
