The Skywatcher Skyhawk-114 is the ideal telescope for serious beginners wishing to make rapid progress in observing the night sky. Thanks to its 114 mm diameter and equatorial mount, it offers an excellent compromise between performance, precision and ease of use.
Versatile and accessible, this model allows you to explore solar system objects as well as many deep-sky objects, while offering a comfortable and scalable observing experience, suitable for regular use.
The Skyhawk-114 is equipped with a primary mirror of 114 mm, light-gathering capacity 125 % greater than a 76 mm model. This aperture produces brighter, more detailed images, ideal for a wide variety of observations.
With a focal length of 1000 mm (f/8.77), This telescope offers a good balance between magnification and ease of use, making it particularly suitable for observing :
Its theoretical maximum magnification of x228 allows you to explore a wide range of celestial objects with precision, while maintaining a stable, usable image.
The Skyhawk-114 is supplied with a EQ1 equatorial mount, designed to facilitate the tracking of celestial objects. Once correctly aligned with the celestial pole, it compensates for the Earth's rotation and tracks objects smoothly.
Visit slow motion commands on the right ascension (RA) and declination (DEC) axes enable precise, comfortable adjustment, particularly useful at high magnification.
The adjustable aluminum tripod ensures good stability while remaining lightweight and easy to transport, ideal for outdoor observation sessions.
The telescope is supplied with a set of accessories enabling you to start observing immediately:
These accessories provide several useful magnifications: x40, x80, x100 and x200, covering the main observation needs without excess or loss of quality.
The Skyhawk-114's mirror benefits from a multi-layer treatment with protection in silicon dioxide, This guarantees excellent durability and stable performance over time.
This coating effectively protects the reflective surface against wear and tear and external conditions, ensuring consistent image quality even after many uses.
The Skywatcher Skyhawk-114 is designed to accompany users as they progress. More powerful than an entry-level telescope, it lets you discover more details and explore a wider range of celestial objects.
Its equatorial mount is also an excellent introduction to advanced observation techniques and object tracking, opening the door to more technical practices.
Easy to use yet sufficiently upgradeable, it's an excellent choice for those who want to take their astronomy skills to the next level and gradually improve them.
The Skywatcher Skyhawk-114 is a reliable, versatile and upgradeable telescope, perfect for motivated beginners. With its 114 mm aperture, equatorial mount and comprehensive accessories, it lets you take full advantage of the wonders of the night sky while developing your astronomy skills over the long term.
The Moon in detail, the planets (Jupiter’s bands and moons, Saturn’s rings), and, under a dark sky, the brightest clusters and nebulae, such as the Orion Nebula. Its maximum useful magnification is approximately 228× (2 × the diameter in mm); in practice, atmospheric turbulence often makes it necessary to stay below this limit.
Two eyepieces are included: 25 mm and 10 mm. With a focal length of 1,000 mm, they provide 40× and 100× magnification. To determine the magnification of an eyepiece, divide the telescope's focal length by that of the eyepiece.
Oui, c'est un instrument léger : le tube pèse environ 2,3 kg et la monture environ 4,5 kg.
Oui, comme tout télescope de type Newton. Un contrôle de temps en temps suffit, surtout après un transport. Avec un laser de collimation, c'est simple et rapide. À f/8,8, il est assez tolérant : un petit écart se remarque peu. Le Sky-Watcher Collimation Guide (EN) explains the procedure.
With a smartphone adapter, you can take souvenir photos of the Moon and the planets—but that's all. Deep-sky photography isn't possible: the mount doesn't track the sky's movement.
