With an aperture of 150 mm and a focal length of 1200 mm (f\/8), this apochromatic doublet refractor is designed to deliver exceptional image quality for both visual and photographic applications. It features reinforced mechanics, a 3-inch CNC eyepiece holder and ultra-high-performance optical coatings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Available for pre-order - Delivery scheduled for October 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Optics designed for precision and contrast<\/h3>\n<p>Like its smaller siblings, the Evostar 150EDX uses a <strong>Japanese glass FPL-53 ED<\/strong> coating, virtually eliminating chromatic aberration. Every optical surface is treated with <strong>MHTC (Metallic High Transmission Coating)<\/strong>The result is an impressive light transmission of 99.5 %. This guarantees sharp stars, high-contrast images and a deep black sky background - qualities sought-after in both observation and imaging.<\/p>\n<h3>Professional-level mechanics<\/h3>\n<p>The great novelty on this model is the <strong>3\" CNC rack-and-pinion eyepiece holder with micro-reduction 11:1<\/strong> and 360\u00b0 rotating adapter, offering optimum support for heavy cameras. The <strong>sliding mist guard<\/strong>the <strong>sturdy anodized aluminum clamps<\/strong> with integrated central handle (which also serves as a turntable), as well as a <strong>75 mm dovetail<\/strong> make this instrument robust, stable and ready for demanding conditions.<\/p>\n<h3>A large-diameter tube for spectacular results<\/h3>\n<p>Weighing in at 15 kg, this refractor requires a sturdy frame, but offers far superior light-gathering power than most ED scopes on the market. The Evostar 150EDX is compatible with a <strong>reducer\/corrector 0.77x (ref. 20333, optional)<\/strong> to optimize the field of view for astrophotography and accelerate the focal ratio.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical specifications of the Sky-Watcher Evostar 150EDX<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"2\">Technical specifications<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Lens type<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Apochromatic refractor (Doublet ED)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Opening<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>150 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Focal length<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1200 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Focal ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>f\/8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Max. useful magnification<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>300x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Lens holder<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>3\" double-speed 11:1 CNC rack, 360\u00b0 rotatable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Fog screen<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Slider<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tube weight<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>15 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tube length<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1067 mm (mist screen retracted), 1250 mm (extended)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Light transmission<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>99.5 % with MHTC treatment<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tube material<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Aluminum with internal light shields<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Dovetail<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>75 mm Losmandy style<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Box contents<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Tubus Sky-Watcher Evostar 150EDX<\/li>\n<li>Clamps with central handle \/ plate<\/li>\n<li>75 mm dovetail<\/li>\n<li>Aluminium carrying case<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Important notes<\/h3>\n<p><strong>This telescope is delivered without eyepieces, angled eyepiece or finder.<\/strong> These accessories are available separately.<\/p>\n<h3>Why choose the Evostar 150EDX?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Large-diameter apochromatic refractor for advanced visual and photo applications<\/li>\n<li>FPL-53 ED glass for optimum chromatic correction<\/li>\n<li>High-end CNC mechanics with 3\" rotating focuser<\/li>\n<li>Contrast and image sharpness unmatched in this range<\/li>\n<li>Robust construction and professional finish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>A serious alternative to high-end triplets<\/h3>\n<p>Visit <strong>Sky-Watcher Evostar 150EDX<\/strong> is a strategic choice for experienced astronomers who want a large, high-performance refractor without the need for a much more expensive triplet.
