Sky Watcher Explorer 130 P-DS OTA Reflector Telescope (As New Condition)

120 £

Description

An excellent Newtonian Reflector telescope for general astronomy, but where it really excels, is in Astro-photography.  It is a very popular size 5" to compare with the very expensive APO refractor telescopes for the astro-photography genre.  Of course, as we all know, the reflector does not have the CA problems like some cheaper refractor scopes do.  The compact size and weight, requires only a lightweight tripod and mount to track - so a big saving all round., I have used it to photograph the moon only and has been used twice, so it is as if it's just out of the box condition., The total cost new, one year ago was:  £239 for the telescope and £66 for the Oklop Padded Bag that is included in the sale., Buyer to collect with cash only to complete the sale.  I do not post or use couriers (bad experience in the past)., This is a great telescope for the beginner it comes with a 25mm and 10mm eyepiece and the base plate for a telrad finder. (telrad and raised platform included in the sale)., The tripod and mount shown in the photo does not come with the sale.  It is only for showing the telescope off in its environment.
