Coronado telescopes, due to their unique and highly specialized capabilities, tend to be much more expensive than traditional telescopes. Coronado does offer one model that is designed for hobbyists who want to see the details of the sun's surface. The model is called the Personal Solar Telescope (PST) and it is priced at around $500. The next available telescope model from Coronado is called the Solarmax 40 series. The Solarmax 40 offers superior detail visibility to the Coronado PST telescope, and comes in two models, both costing over $1000.
