Description
The Omegon 126/920 EQ-3 is the right telescope for taking your first steps in the starry sky. Thanks to his high light gathering capacity it's really easy to explore deep space. Whether you want to observe Saturn and its rings, or the Ring Nebula - 2300 light years away - with its delicate smoke ring, the Omegon 126/920 will make all this and much more possible!
The EQ-3 mount is considerably more stable than the smaller EQ-2 mount , so the optical tube is less subject to oscillations and jolts, making observation a real pleasure.
The optics 126/920
The 126mm aperture offers approx 22% more light gathering capacity compared to the smaller 114/900mm model. Compared to the naked eye the optics collect 320 times more light . These data demonstrate that several things are already possible with a telescope of this size.
Maximum magnifications are not always important for observation, but when conditions are favorable, with the right eyepieces, a maximum magnification can be achieved. maximum useful magnification of 250x . The resolution capacity and possible enlargements are enough to make it stand out the first details on some planets . The optical tube features a 1.25" focuser , compatible with all eyepieces .
And when observed beyond the Solar System, numerous objects appear such as star clusters, gaseous nebulae and even some galaxies.
Do you also want to take photos? Here too you can take your first steps, since with a simple digital camera and an (optional) adapter you can get fascinating photos of the Moon.
The Newon Omegon N126/920 telescope is easy to collimate . This is important, because with correct collimation the telescope will provide you with its best image rendering performance. In this regard you will find some collimation screws on the primary and secondary mirrors .
The advantages at a glance:
- optics with 126mm aperture
- light point finder to easily find celestial bodies
- stable secondary mirror spokes
- 1.25'' focuser for all 1.25'' eyepieces and filters on the market
- collimation screws on the primary and secondary mirrors
- weight of the optical tube 3.4 kg/ external diameter 168 mm
The mount EQ-3: This equatorial mount offers the ability to precisely align the optics to the Pole Star. For each observation point it is possible to set the correct height of the North Star or amplitude. With micrometric movements in Right Ascension and Declination you can aim and follow precisely objects, while a counterweight ensures correct balance of the optical tube. The EQ3 mount represents one solid base for most lenses, from small to medium sizes and is ideal for wonderful walks in the night sky. For the EQ3 they are available engines for automatic tracking, for which it is possible to do the first experiments astrophotography .
