Visit Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 120 HEQ5-R PRO GoTo is a high-performance achromatic refractor designed for demanding astronomers who want to combine optical quality, extreme stability and advanced automation. This complete configuration combines powerful 120 mm optics with the renowned HEQ5 PRO mount, renowned for its precision and robustness, ideal for visual observation and astrophotography.
With its goal of 120 mm diameter, this telescope captures up to 38 % more light than a 102 mm model, The result is brighter, more detailed, higher-contrast images. Its 1000 mm and its focal ratio of f/8,33 offer an excellent compromise between resolution and brightness, ideal for observing the Moon, planets and many deep-sky objects.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 120 is based on an achromatic doublet optical design that effectively reduces chromatic aberrations. This technology ensures more precise convergence of different wavelengths, delivering a sharp, faithful image rich in detail.
The lens benefits from Multi-Coated, The result is bright, high-contrast images, particularly suitable for observing planetary and lunar surfaces. The result is bright, high-contrast images, particularly suited to the observation of planetary and lunar surfaces.
Thanks to its performance close to the diffraction limit, this telescope makes full use of its diameter, offering outstanding image quality for detailed observations at high magnification.
The telescope is supplied with two eyepieces of 26 mm and 10 mm, which enables magnifications of x40 and x100. Its theoretical maximum capacity is x240, ideal for fine observation of lunar craters, Jupiter's cloud bands or Saturn's rings.
The f/8.33 focal ratio guarantees excellent image stability, even at high magnification, while maintaining a good level of brightness. This makes it a versatile instrument, suitable for many types of observation.
The real advantage of this configuration lies in its HEQ5-R PRO SynScan GoTo mount, a motorized equatorial mount renowned for its precision and load-bearing capacity. Equipped with double-axis stepper motors, It provides smooth, extremely precise tracking of celestial objects.
The GoTo system automatically points thousands of celestial objects in a matter of seconds. Once aligned, the mount follows the objects by compensating for the Earth's rotation, offering optimal observing comfort and facilitating prolonged sessions.
The integrated polar finder mount enables precise positioning, essential for tracking and astrophotography.
The mount requires a power supply 12V DC
The HEQ5 PRO is particularly well-suited to astrophotography, thanks to its stability and tracking precision, for detailed images of the deep sky.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 120 HEQ5 PRO is equipped with a Dual-Fit 1.25”/2” eyepiece holder”, The lens is compatible with a wide range of eyepieces and accessories. The 2” (50.8 mm) angled return allows comfortable observation and the use of wide-field eyepieces.
The researcher 9×50 facilitates the initial location of celestial objects, effectively complementing the GoTo system. The direct connection for SLR cameras makes it easy to capture images of the Moon and planets.
The tripod in 1.75” stainless steel” ensures exceptional stability, limiting vibrations and guaranteeing an optimal viewing experience. The integrated accessory tray keeps your equipment organized.
Thanks to the precision of the HEQ5 PRO mount and the optical quality of the scope, this configuration is perfectly suited to astrophotography. It allows you to capture detailed images of the solar system and gradually explore the deep sky.
Its compatibility with a wide range of accessories and its sturdiness make it an upgradeable instrument, capable of accompanying users as they progress in astronomy.
