Description
Omegon Pro Newton: to set sail into space with the wind at your back
See razor-sharp lunar craters, detailed planets and deep-sky objects that will simply appear brighter than in a standard telescope. The Omegon Pro Newton does not do things by halves: materials and workmanship are excellent. For everything to go smoothly on your journey through the universe.
The advantages at a glance:
Optical tube with excellent workmanship: for many years of satisfaction
BK-7 main mirror and 94% reflectivity: Brighter images than a standard mirror, for outstanding contrast
Crayford 2 focuser: smooth focusing, to always find the perfect sharpness
High-quality metal tube with excellent workmanship
This telescope tube opens the door to a fantastic hobby for you. It is not made of plastic but of metal, with a fine workmanship. In the world of telescopes, these are essential prerequisites, because only in this way can the instrument give long years of satisfaction.
Main mirror in BK7 glass
The heart of this instrument is the BK-7 glass main mirror. Compared to "usual" glass, this guarantees zero deformation during the cooling phase. This means better image reproduction, even if the tube is not yet fully acclimatised to the outside temperature.
Enhanced Coating: 94% reflectivity for bright images
When you dive deep into the universe, you can observe objects otherwise invisible to the naked eye with your telescope. The most important features of the instrument are the aperture and the main mirror. The main mirror of this telescope offers 94% reflectivity, allowing you to view super-bright images, even of faint deep-sky objects, with excellent contrast.
2" Crayford focuser, to get all the sharpness you need
The Crayford 2" Single Speed focuser finds focus extraordinarily easily with any eyepiece you want. The ball-bearing design makes it possible: light and precise, it always finds the exact point of focus.
A spider with slender legs for maximum contrast
Astronomers know it well: the insect that lives in the cellars has nothing to do with it in this case. The spider is the support that holds the secondary mirror, and that of this telescope has arms only a few millimeters thick. The result is a contrast that does not go unnoticed.
Our opinion: It's the perfect tube to start the astronomy hobby in the best way or to upgrade your equipment with a high quality product.
Up to 10 kg in weight
A new mount for your telescope? The Omegon EQ-500 X is a robust mount for small to medium-sized telescopes, with tube openings up to 200 mm and weighing 10 kg. The simple structure and ease of use get you up and running quickly on your next night of observing.
The advantages at a glance:
Robust equatorial mount for steady, vibration-free observations with small to medium-sized telescopes
Easy navigation with the manual micrometer mechanism in any desired direction. Perfect for visual observation
Ball bearing axes, for smooth and precise movements
Sturdy tripod: made of stainless steel, it holds your telescope stably
Setting ring with scale, to find the desired object also via the sky atlas
Manual parallax mount: easy tracking
The parallax structure makes it easy to track objects that would otherwise go out of view. Simply turn the AR axis with the handy micrometer movement to keep the planet or nebula in view at any magnification. So the astronomical evening will give satisfaction to the whole family.
A sturdier frame that gives more satisfaction
How long does it take for your current mount to move and give you a stable image? It's a fact, many mounts are too weak for the tube they have to carry. But with this mount that won't be your problem. In fact, the medium-sized refractor or reflector finds here a stable location and improved mechanics. To have great satisfaction.
Ball bearing axles for smooth movement
Everything runs smoothly here: The EQ-500 mount is equipped with ball bearings on both axes. The movement is therefore much more fluid and guarantees perfect positioning without backlash, even with high magnifications.
A stable tripod
The height-adjustable tripod is made of stainless steel and ensures a more stable stand than many other aluminum tripods. The sturdy plate doubles as a secure shelf for seven 1.25" eyepieces and two 2" eyepieces. So your accessories are also close at hand at night.
Tracking circle, to find objects by coordinates
Sometimes help can be needed, especially if you are looking for a dim object. With a celestial atlas and setting rings, you can also find it via astronomical coordinates.
Polar finder
On request, you can equip your new mount with an optional polar finder.
