TS-PHOTON 154/600mm Advanced Newtonian for astrophotography and observingAstrophotography is easy for you with this compact Newtonian from the TS-PHOTON series. Due to the aperture ratio of f/4, this astrograph provides pure speed and therefore short exposure times. With a suitable coma corrector this PHOTON Newtonian becomes a very good astrograph.
With approx. 5 kg weight and only 530 mm length, this PHOTON Newtonian is an ideal travel telescope. For wide field observations, you can even mount the telescope on a good photo tripod. The dovetail bar provides the matching 1/4" photo thread at its base.
Of course, the rich field Newtonian is best placed on a good astronomical mount, for example the EQ3-2 from Skywatcher or a good GoTo mount. Then there is nothing more to prevent a fulfilled astronomical viewing session.
