Description

This Sky-Watcher 120mm (4") f/5 telescope is a two-element, air-spaced, fully multi-coated objective, achromatic refractor, which can give exciting "rich field" astronomical views. It can provide excellent views of star fields, clusters, nebulae, galaxies, planets and the Moon. It is also a fine terrestrial telescope when mounted on an alt-azimuth mount or a photographic tripod. Crisp images at a reasonable price make it an excellent beginner's "first telescope", or a great travelling telescope for a more advanced observer.

This larger aperture model has more light collecting power at the same focal ratio and accepts 2" diagonals for awesome wide field views, with only a small amount of chromatic aberration.

Features:

  • Optical design: achromatic refractor
  • Aperture: 120 mm
  • Focal length: 600 mm (f/5)
  • Tube rings and a mounting rail
  • (1.25"): 10mm and 25mm eyepieces
