Sky-Watcher Explorer 150PDS EQ3 PRO Go-To - Newton telescope for assisted astrophotography
A powerful, automated telescope perfectly suited to in-focus astrophotography
Visit Sky-Watcher Explorer 150PDS EQ3 PRO Go-To is a top-of-the-range version of the famous Newton 150 mm f/5 telescope,
mounted here on the EQ3 PRO motorized equatorial mount with Go-To system SynScan and database of over 42,900 celestial objects.
This model retains the excellent optics of the Black Diamond Explorer-150Pwith two major improvements:
- Crayford 2″ double-speed eyepiece holder (10:1) for remarkably precise focusing.
- Shortened tube to facilitate in-focus focusing with an SLR camera or camcorder.
For even better astrophotographic performance, use in conjunction with the Sky-Watcher coma corrector (product code 20233) is recommended.
