Omegon Maksutov - excellent contrast for observing the Moon and planets
This Maksutov telescope is an 'expert telescope' for lunar and planetary observing. This telescope design boasts excellent contrast with a sharp image. This telescope can show you masses of detail in lunar craters or in the cloud bands and features of the planets.
The advantages in a nutshell
- Maksutov telescope - compact and lightweight design
- suitable for astronomy or nature-watching
- optimal for smaller mounts
- suitable for taking on trips
- GP prism rail for super-fast mounting
Always a perfect image
The Maksutov system could not be more brilliant -a compact telescope, but with an extremely long focal length. It is easy to get an excellent image at high magnification, even using cheap and simple eyepieces - an advantage sadly lacking with many short focal length telescopes.
The success of Dimitri Maksutov
When the optical engineer Dmitri Maksutov invented the Maksutov telescope in 1942, he could not have imagined that it would become such a success story. The success of this ingenious design still continues even more than 70 years after its invention. Good designs withstand the test of time. See for yourself just how good this Maksutov telescope is.
What you can observe with a Maksutov telescope?
- the Moon with its thousands of craters
- the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn
- the phases of Venus
- polar caps and dark regions on Mars
- binary stars, such as the Albireo system
- nature - mountains, wildlife, birds, etc.
Fond of travelling? - there is always space in your luggage for it
Whether by car or plane - this telescope can accompany you anywhere on Earth. The fact that the optical system is short is a great advantage - it means you can take it with you into the mountains or desert, where the view of the night sky is unparalleled.
Dovetail rail - simply attach to a mount and you're ready to go
The telescope OTA attaches easily to your mount. You do not need any tube clamps - a GP format prism mount is already firmly attached to the OTA.
Finder shoe - suitable for most finder scopes
The Omegon Maksutov comes equipped with a finder scope mounting that will take most of the finder scopes available. This includes Omegon, Celestron, Skywatcher, Vixen and other finder scopes. Decide for yourself - would you prefer an LED finder or optical finder? Slide it in and you're ready to go!
LED viewfinder - To help you locate objects in the night sky more easily
For the Moon, planets or galaxies - locating astronomical objects is sometimes not so easy, especially for beginners. But Omegon's red dot finder guarantees you success.
Omegon 10mm and 25mm eyepiece set - magnify objects to observe more detail
A telescope and its eyepieces - they go together like a camera and its lenses. Only when you insert an eyepiece into a telescope do you see first an image and the magnification it gives. This very competitively priced eyepiece set consists of a 10mm and a 25mm eyepiece. These two 1.25 inch eyepieces can be the basic accessories for your first observing.
The mount
Omegon Advanced EQ-300 - sturdy equatorial mount for up to 6kg
A stable equatorial mount is the basis for any successful astronomical observing. The Omegon EQ-300 mount has a load-bearing capacity of up to 6kg, letting you choose from many different OTAs. Perhaps you have a 150mm Newtonian telescope and also want to use your 5" refractor? The EQ-300 lets you mount anything in the small to medium-sized range of telescopes.
Equatorial design - easy to follow the stars
This mount is an equatorial design. Once aligned, the mount can track stars, planets and other astronomical objects by rotating on a single axis. The advantage is that you only have to track the telescope using that one axis, making it easier to hold objects in the field of view. So you will have hours of relaxed observing and perhaps even be able to get your entire family interested in your hobby.
Precision location of the celestial pole
As with larger mounts, the two azimuth screws and two polar elevation screws ensure quick and easy alignment on the Pole Star - letting you get on with an exciting night's observing.
Preparation for a polar finder scope
If you are interested in astrophotography, then why not equip your mount with an advanced polar finder scope. This lets you increase the mount's precision and takes your astrophotography to the next level. Long exposures (motor recommended) then become possible.
Steel tripod for more stability
This stainless steel tripod provides a much more stable base for the telescope mount compared to models made from aluminium. It is exactly this steadiness that the quality of your observing ultimately depends on. The three steel legs are additionally reinforced by a metal plate giving you a tripod that will not wobble during your observing. The metal plate also has holes provided for holding your eyepieces during your observing sessions.
The advantages in a nutshell:
- stable equatorial mount
- for small to medium-size telescope OTAs
- quick-release coupling for OTAs with prism rails
- track objects precisely using the slow-motion controls
- with extendable stainless steel tripod - adjustable and ultra-stable
- 4.3 kg counterweight
- upgradable motor available for automatic tracking
