Sky-Watcher Evostar 80EDX telescope - Precision apochromatic refractor

Visit Sky-Watcher Evostar 80EDX is an 80 mm apochromatic doublet refractor designed to deliver exceptional image quality for both visual observation and astrophotography. This EDX model, a direct evolution of the famous Evostar 80ED, benefits from significant mechanical improvements, while retaining the premium f/7.5 optics based on FPL-53 glass, renowned for its sharpness and contrast. Compact, lightweight and robust, it's an excellent choice for demanding astronomers looking for a reliable, high-performance instrument.

Outstanding optical performance

At the heart of the Evostar 80EDX is a doublet lens featuring Japanese Ohara FPL-53 ED glass, which almost totally reduces chromatic aberrations. Each air-glass surface is treated with the exclusive MHTC (Metallic High-Transmission Coating) allowing light transmission of up to 99.5 %.

The result? Perfectly punctual stars against a deep black sky background, ideal for photographing nebulae, star clusters or galaxies, but also for high-precision planetary observation.

Improved ergonomics and ease of use

This model now includes a focuser Crayford 2.8" dual-speed 11:1 with graduated scale and 360° rotating ring, perfect for astrophotography framing. The sliding, removable mist screenIts sturdy carrying handles and sturdy anodized aluminum tube make it easy to install, transport and use in the field.

A telescope designed for astrophotographers

Thanks to its doublet design and reduced weight of just 4 kg, the Evostar 80EDX is easy to mount on lightweight frames, while retaining excellent stability. It is compatible with focal reducer/field corrector 0.85x (ref. 20236, optional) for a wider field of view in wide-field photography.
