Thanks to its <strong>150 mm<\/strong> and its long focal length, it is the ideal instrument for detailed observation of the <strong>Moon, planets and double stars<\/strong>, while maintaining its performance on certain bright deep-sky objects.<\/p>\n<p>With a focal length of <strong>1800 mm (f\/12)<\/strong>, This telescope is perfectly suited to high-magnification observations. It can reach a magnification of <strong>x64<\/strong> with the eyepiece supplied, and can reach a theoretical maximum magnification of <strong>x450<\/strong> under the right conditions. This level of performance makes it possible to accurately observe <strong>details of lunar craters, Saturn's rings, the phases of Venus or Jupiter's cloud bands<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>High-resolution Maksutov-Cassegrain optics<\/h3>\n<p>The SKYMAX-150 is based on an optical design renowned for its <strong>exceptional image quality<\/strong>. Its closed system limits internal turbulence and effectively protects optics from dust. The primary and secondary mirrors are treated with <strong>Radiant\u2122 Aluminum Quartz (RAQ\u2122)<\/strong>guaranteeing <strong>reflectivity up to 94%<\/strong>. This treatment improves light transmission and ensures bright, high-contrast, sharp images.<\/p>\n<p>The primary mirror displacement focusing system enables fine, gradual adjustment, essential for obtaining perfect sharpness when observing at high magnification.<\/p>\n<h3>EQ5 Pro SynScan Go-To mount: automation and precision<\/h3>\n<p>The telescope is supplied with the <strong>EQ5 Pro SynScan\u2122 Go-To equatorial mount<\/strong>, a motorized solution that makes skywatching a whole lot easier. Thanks to its control panel, you can <strong>automatically point at thousands of celestial objects<\/strong> without having to search for them manually.<\/p>\n<p>Once aligned using the <strong>integrated polar viewfinder<\/strong>, the frame provides <strong>precise monitoring<\/strong> by compensating for the Earth's rotation. This feature keeps the object under observation centered in the field, considerably improving viewing comfort and opening the door to the\u2019<strong>astrophotography<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Operating with a power supply <strong>12V DC<\/strong>, This mount is ideal for use both in the field and at home. It offers an excellent compromise between performance, ease of use and upgradability.<\/p>\n<h3>Observation comfort and equipment included<\/h3>\n<p>The SKYMAX-150 is supplied with a <strong>2\u201d 28 mm eyepiece<\/strong>, to obtain an initial magnification of <strong>x64<\/strong>. Le <strong>2\u201d (50.8 mm) angled return<\/strong> ensures optimum viewing comfort, especially when the telescope is oriented towards the zenith.<\/p>\n<p>Visit <strong>9\u00d750 optical finder<\/strong> with support makes it easy to spot objects in the sky, while the overall quality of the accessories ensures a smooth, pleasant experience right from the outset.<\/p>\n<p>The structure is based on a <strong>1.75\u201d stainless steel tripod\u201d<\/strong>, The integrated accessory tray keeps your equipment within easy reach during your observation sessions. The integrated accessory tray keeps your equipment close at hand during your observation sessions.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical specifications of the Sky-Watcher SKYMAX-150 Pro + EQ5 Pro SynScan<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"8\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Features<\/th>\n<th>Detail<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical type<\/td>\n<td>Maksutov-Cassegrain<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Diameter<\/td>\n<td>150 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focal length<\/td>\n<td>1800 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focus report<\/td>\n<td>f\/12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Magnification supplied<\/td>\n<td>x64<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Maximum magnification<\/td>\n<td>x450<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical treatment<\/td>\n<td>RAQ\u2122 (94% reflectivity)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Eyepiece included<\/td>\n<td>28 mm (2\u201d)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Researcher<\/td>\n<td>9\u00d750 with stand<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Angled return<\/td>\n<td>2\u201d \/ 50.8 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Frame<\/td>\n<td>EQ5 Pro SynScan\u2122 Go-To<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Power supply<\/td>\n<td>12V DC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tripod<\/td>\n<td>1.75\u201d stainless steel with tray<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focusing<\/td>\n<td>By moving the primary mirror<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Polar viewfinder<\/td>\n<td>Integrated<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Why choose the SKYMAX-150 Pro + EQ5 Pro SynScan?<\/h3>\n<p>Visit <strong>Sky-Watcher SKYMAX-150 Pro + EQ5 Pro SynScan<\/strong> is an excellent choice for astronomers looking to take things to the next level.
