Skywatcher - Explorer-300PDS Dual-Speed Newtonian with NEQ-6 PRO GOTO mount
The OpticsThe new Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-300PDS Newtonian reflector incorporates
the same superb mirror-set as the Explorer-300P but with two
significant advantages. A Dual-Speed 10:1 ratio focuser is now included
for excellent focusing precision. Also the tube length has been
slightly shortened to optimise performance for prime-focus photography. Even
better performance for astrophotography and visual use can be
achieved when used in combination with Sky-Watchers Newtonian coma
corrector (SKY-20233).
The MountFor amateur astronomers seeking superior equatorial control and the ease
of a precision computerized GOTO system, the NEQ6 PRO SynScan is your answer. The Sky-Watcher NEQ6 PRO SynScan
is designed with the novice user in mind. With the user-friendly
pushbutton hand control, locating and viewing the treasures of the night
sky becomes as easy as a walk in the park. The hand control allows you
to point the telescope at a specific object or even tour the skies at
the touch of a button. The user-friendly menu system allows automatic
slewing to over 42,000 + objects. Even an inexperienced astronomer can
master its variety of features in a few observing sessions. The NEQ6
SynScan also comes with features that advanced astronomers can appreciate.
