The Equinox 120 is the star of the Equinox Series. Its generous aperture makes it an ideal observing instrument for solar system and deep space objects alike - and it really shines on double stars. For astrophotography, the Equinox 120 features an f/7.5 focal ratio - more than speedy enough for today's sensitive CCDs and digital SLR cameras. Plus, it can be coupled with a common SCT focal reducer to achieve even faster speeds.

Its high-power views are stunning. Consider these comments elicited by the Equinox 120 at a recent star party. Saturn was being viewed at 180x: "This is the view of Saturn that I have been waiting all my life to see," Brian, D., an amateur astronomer with 30 years of experience; "Come on, you've got a picture in there somewhere," Karen, P., first time ever looking in a telescope.

For experienced observers and novices alike, the Equinox 120 delivers remarkable and memorable views. It has the perfect configuration of aperture, focal length and focal ratio to make it a general-purpose telescope that can be used for everything from widefield viewing to high-power planetary imaging. It may be the only telescope you will ever need, and one of the finest you will ever look through in this aperture class.
