The Vixen R200SS is a Newtonian telescope designed for astrophotography and visual observation of the deep sky. With its fast 200 mm aperture and f/4 focal ratio, it offers excellent brightness, short exposure times and a wide field of view, making it ideal for capturing nebulae, galaxies and star clusters.
The Vixen R200SS is a high-performance Newtonian telescope that combines lightness, optical speed and versatility. It is an excellent choice for astrophotographers wishing to capture spectacular images of the deep sky, while benefiting from an easy-to-handle instrument.
With a 200 mm aperture at f/4 and a focal length of 800 mm, it is primarily an astrophotography telescope: when used with a camera, it is designed to photograph nebulae, galaxies, and clusters, offering a good balance between field of view and detail.
Yes, it's a lightweight instrument: the tube weighs about 5.3 kg and is about 70 cm long.
Yes, and with care: in astrophotography, an f/4 open-aperture Newtonian telescope requires precise collimation. A collimation laser makes the adjustment easier.
Yes, that’s what it’s designed for: it mounts on a motorized equatorial mount (not included) with an astro camera or a regular camera. With an aperture of f/4, it gathers light very quickly, so exposure times remain short. With a tube weighing about 5.3 kg (without accessories), choose a mount with a load capacity that leaves some room to spare.
200/800 mm parabolic Newtonian optical tube, 7×50 finder scope, dovetail mount, tube clamps, and handle.
