OPTIMISED FOR PRIME FOCUS ASTRO-PHOTOGRAPHY

 

 

The new Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-150PDS Newtonian Reflector incorporates the same superb mirror-set as the Explorer-150P Black Diamond Series, but with two significant advantages.

A Dual-Speed 10:1 ratio focuser is now included for excellent focusing precision.

Also the tube length has been slightly shortened to optimise performance for prime-focus photography.

 

 

Even better performance for astro-photography and visual use can be achieved when used in combination with Sky-Watcher’s Newtonian coma corrector (SW20233).
