Skywatcher Maksutov Skymax 150

Thanks to the use of prestigious low-dispersion glass and precise manufacturing, this 150mm diameter telescope provides excellent observations of double stars and solar system objects. The optics also perform admirably in deep-sky viewing due to their high contrast.

Thanks to its 150mm diameter, this powerful yet compact Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope offers the best performance obtainable from a telescope of this optical design in its price range! The specific optical design provides the best performance for planetary observation and photography, where it is necessary to generate high magnification while maintaining the highest possible contrast. The planets and the Moon show many fine details, but you can also use this Sky-Watcher MAK150 to observe faint objects; stars will truly appear as pinpoints of light!

The Sky-Watcher Maksutov-Cassegrain 150 is the ideal instrument for planetary and lunar photography as it features a small secondary mirror and therefore low obstruction. Furthermore, thanks to its high focal length (1800mm), a 2x or 3x Barlow lens is sufficient to obtain exceptional magnification with any planetary camera, resulting in incredible images displayed on your computer screen.
