Visit Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 102 EQ3-2 is a high-quality achromatic refractor designed for superior optical performance and tracking accuracy. Intended for demanding novice astronomers and intermediate users alike, it boasts excellent resolving power and the ability to deliver bright, high-contrast images. Thanks to its 102 mm, This is a significant improvement over the 90 mm models, with up to 28 % additional light collected.
Its 1000 mm and its focal ratio of f/9,8 make it particularly well-suited to high-magnification observation. It excels in the detailed study of the Moon, planets and double stars, while allowing you to explore certain deep-sky objects with great clarity.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 102 is based on a classic achromatic doublet optical design. This system effectively reduces chromatic aberrations while offering excellent image sharpness. The result is precise, faithful images, ideal for detailed observations.
The lens is coated Multi-Coated, which improves light transmission and reduces internal reflections. This treatment guarantees bright, high-contrast images, essential for observing the fine details of planetary and lunar surfaces.
Thanks to its performance close to the diffraction limit, this telescope offers exceptional rendering for its diameter, allowing you to take full advantage of its optical capabilities.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 102 EQ3-2 is supplied with two eyepieces of 25 mm and 10 mm, which enables magnifications of x40 and x100. Its theoretical maximum capacity is x204, ideal for observing fine details of the lunar surface and planetary structures.
Its f/9.8 focal ratio ensures excellent contrast and image stability at high magnification. This makes it particularly suitable for observing the solar system, while remaining versatile for other types of celestial objects.
The bezel is mounted on a EQ3-2 Deluxe equatorial mount, renowned for its robustness and precision. Once correctly aligned, thanks to its integrated polar sight support, it allows you to easily track celestial objects by compensating for the Earth's rotation.
Visit slow-motion controls provide precise adjustment on both axes, making it easy to track high-magnification objects. This mount is ideal for prolonged observations and is an excellent basis for starting out in astrophotography.
The sturdy aluminum tripod guarantees good stability and limits vibrations, offering optimum viewing comfort. The integrated accessory tray keeps your equipment organized and accessible.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 102 EQ3-2 is equipped with a Dual-Fit 1.25”/2” eyepiece holder”, This flexibility enables the instrument to be adapted to a wide range of uses, from visual observation to imaging. This flexibility makes it possible to adapt the instrument to different uses, from visual observation to imaging.
Visit 2” (50.8 mm) angled return ensures comfortable viewing and a wider field of view with compatible eyepieces. What's more, the direct connection for SLR cameras makes it easy to capture images of the Moon and planets.
This configuration makes the EVOSTAR 102 an excellent choice for astronomers wishing to take up astrophotography with a reliable, upgradeable instrument.
The researcher 6×30 included makes it easy to locate celestial objects, enabling fast, efficient positioning. Combined with the equatorial mount, it enables objects to be precisely located and tracked.
Handling is intuitive, even for novice users. The equatorial mount requires a slight learning curve, but offers superior precision and comfort when tracking celestial objects.
