Sky-Watcher Black Diamond 130mm Parabolic Reflector Telescope with EQ2 Mount

The primary mirror of this system is a diffraction-limited parabolic mirror, the same type used on much larger reflectors costing many times as much. On a short focal length design like this one, a parabolic mirror is a must for focusing incoming light to a point and delivering sharp, detailed images. Moreover, the secondary mirror is held in an advanced holder with thin 0.5mm metal vanes, to reduce diffraction spikes and light loss.

  • Diameter: 130mm
  • Focal Length: 650mm
  • F/ratio: f/5
  • Diffraction-limited secondary mirror support
  • Paraboloidal (parabolic) primary mirror
  • Red Dot Finder for easy locating of celestial objects
  • 130mm primary mirror collects 30% more light than 114mm, revealing more space treasures with better resolution and brighter image
  • Smooth rack-and-pinion focuser
  • Short focal length design, ideal for astrophotography
