127 mm Maksutov optics: high resolution and advanced performance

Featuring a 127 mm and a focal length of 1500 mm (f/11.8), The Skymax-127T is designed for high-magnification observations. Its Maksutov-Cassegrain optical formula effectively corrects aberrations and guarantees sharp, high-contrast images rich in detail.

The mirrors are treated Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™), offering up to 94 % reflectivity, which improves the brightness and durability of the optical system.

This telescope is particularly effective for :

  • detailed observation of the lunar surface
  • planets such as Jupiter, Saturn and Mars
  • double stars thanks to its high resolution

With a theoretical maximum magnification of x254, It allows you to fully exploit the capabilities of your optics.

Compact size for maximum power

Despite its high performance, the Skymax-127T remains compact and easy to transport. Its closed design and folded focal length allow you to benefit from a powerful instrument without the bulk of a conventional telescope of the same focal length.

Ideal for :

  • observations on the move
  • users looking for a high-performance yet space-saving instrument
  • quick installation without constraints
