SkyWatcher 150/750 Newtonian telescopes are an excellent choice for those seeking an affordable reflecting telescope suitable for almost any observing purpose. Available in several versions, all featuring the same optics: the precisely crafted 150 mm parabolic primary mirror reveals a wealth of detail in the wonders of the night sky. Its wide field of view makes it ideal for comfortably observing larger deep-sky objects, such as star clusters and nebulae. At high magnifications, lunar surface features can be studied in detail, while planetary surface details also become visible.
The Explorer 150/750P optical tube is also an excellent entry-level option for more serious astrophotography. Its single-speed 2" Crayford focuser allows precise focusing. The included 1.25" 25 mm and 10 mm barium eyepieces provide 30x and 75x magnification. The 2"/1.25" adapter is included and features a T2 thread. The 6x30 finderscope with crosshairs makes locating objects easy. It comes with tube rings and a dovetail bar for mounting on astronomical mounts.
We recommend purchasing the above optical tube for use with an existing mount. If you do not already have a mount suitable for astronomical telescopes, please purchase the optical tube together with a mount.
