Visit Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 150 EQ5 is a large-diameter achromatic refractor, designed to offer exceptional optical performance to the most demanding astronomers. Thanks to its 150 mm, It captures an impressive amount of light, offering up to 56 % more brightness than a 120 mm model. This capability produces particularly bright, detailed and high-contrast images.
With a focal length of 1200 mm and a focal ratio of f/8, This telescope is ideally suited to high-magnification observation. It excels in the study of the Moon, planets and double stars, while offering excellent performance on many deep-sky objects, such as star clusters and certain bright nebulae.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 150 is based on an achromatic doublet optical design that effectively reduces chromatic aberrations. This system guarantees a sharp, faithful image, with excellent contrast, particularly appreciated for detailed observations.
The lens features Multi-Coated, This optimizes light transmission and reduces internal reflections. The result is bright, precise images, ideal for observing the fine details of lunar and planetary surfaces.
Thanks to its performance close to the diffraction limit, this telescope makes full use of its large diameter, offering impressive image quality for immersive observations.
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 150 EQ5 is supplied with two eyepieces of 25 mm and 10 mm, which can achieve magnifications of x48 and x120. Its theoretical maximum capacity is x300, ideal for observing the fine details of the Moon, planets and double stars.
Its f/8 focal ratio ensures an excellent balance between brightness and contrast, guaranteeing stable, well-defined images even at high magnification.
The bezel is mounted on a EQ5 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 allow precise adjustment on both axes, making it easy to track high-magnification objects. This mount is ideal for prolonged observations, and provides an excellent basis for moving into astrophotography.
The tripod in 1.75” stainless steel” ensures excellent stability, limiting vibrations and guaranteeing optimal viewing comfort. The integrated accessory tray makes it easy to organize your equipment.
A support for a polar finder is integrated to improve set-up accuracy (finder available as an option).
The Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 150 EQ5 is equipped with a Dual-Fit 1.25”/2” eyepiece holder”, The lens is designed to be 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 makes it easier to locate celestial objects, while the direct connection for SLR cameras makes it easy to capture images of the Moon and planets.
Thanks to its stability and precision, this configuration is an excellent basis for starting out in astrophotography and moving on to more ambitious projects.
Despite its large diameter, the Sky-Watcher EVOSTAR 150 EQ5 is relatively easy to use. The equatorial mount requires a little learning, but in return offers far greater precision and comfort when tracking celestial objects.
This telescope is ideal for users who want to take astronomy to the next level and enjoy a high-performance, upgradeable and durable instrument.
