Visit Sky-Watcher Explorer-190MN DS-PRO is a real gem for demanding astrophotographers. This Maksutov-Newton combines the high resolution of Newtonian reflectors with the exceptional correction of Maksutov systems, to produce images of spectacular flatness and contrast, worthy of an apochromatic refractor... but with a 190 mm mirror.
Designed for deep-sky imaging enthusiasts, this optical tube features a exceptional field correction over the entire sensor surface. Stars remain punctual right to the edge, without aberrations or false colors. The optics incorporate a Schott glass front elementrenowned worldwide for its precision imaging performance. The primary mirror is made of Pyrex® with low thermal expansionThis guarantees rapid optical stability, even after large temperature swings.
The rolled steel tube is mechanically robust, incorporating five internal baffles with sharp edges to eliminate unwanted reflections and maximize contrast. All this is rounded off by a 2" Crayford eyepiece holder with 10:1 gear ratiosmooth, play-free operation, ideal for precise focusing, even with heavy sensors.
Supplied with clamps, a Vixen-style mounting plate and an angled 9×50 finder, the 190MN is ready to be installed on a quality mount such as the HEQ5 PRO SynScan, included in this pack.
