Apochromatic refractors occupy a special place among the instruments of amateur astronomers. Thanks to their special glass material, their lenses are free of the colour aberrations that characterise acromatic lenses, giving them unparalleled contrast and sharpness. With the SkyWatcher Evostar ED 80/600 DS-Pro , the Moon with its seas, tiny craters and troughs is sure to be a breathtaking sight. And Jupiter's cloud-streaked disk or Saturn's magnificent ring seem to "float" in space.
The telescope's short focal length of 600 mm is particularly useful for photography: its huge field of view allows you to see even the largest star clusters and nebulae. The excellent optics provide sharp, contrasty images at high magnifications of up to 160x, and SkyWatcher's unique MHC anti-reflective coating guarantees maximum light transmission (99.5%).
The most magnificent objects in the universe can be seen even at the highest magnifications.The tube of the SkyWatcher Evostar ED 80/600 DS-Pro is equipped with a precision 2" Crayford focuser, which also features a 1:10 ratio microfocus eyepiece. The tube ring and prism ring are standard accessories! The telescope comes in a handy aluminium case, and the standard package includes a 9x50 straight-view finder, a 2" dielectric zenith mirror and a 2" 28mm focal length eyepiece.
