SkyWatcher Black Diamond 200 800 DUAL SPEED SkyWatcher Reflector Telescope on NEQ6 Pro Goto mount.
The new SKYWATCHER WIDEPHOTO reflector telescopes take the traditional parabolic mirror systems typical of conventional reflectors to the next level.
The SKYWATCHER WIDEPHOTO 200/800 model presented here has been designed so that the optical system offers a faster focal ratio of F/4, whose extraordinary brightness will allow for shorter exposures while achieving higher quality/brightness images.
The SKYWATCHER WIDEPHOTO 200/800 also comes standard with the powerful 2" DUAL SPEEDfocuser . This focuser is capable of carrying heavy weights without any variations in its position for a smooth and precise focusing process. The SKYWATCHER WIDEPHOTO 200/800 telescope is not only an excellent photographic equipment, it is also ideal for visual observation.
For astrophotography Skywatcher has designed a special range of carbon instruments (200 / 254mm) equipped with a short focal ratio. To offer better deep sky imaging performance, Sky-Watcher reduces the focal range of the "classic" Black Diamond to f / 4 to provide a wider range and a much higher photographic speed. At equal exposure times, a shorter focal ratio provides a better signal-to-noise ratio. In addition, the tube size is reduced, which also means less wind resistance.
Another important aspect is the use of a carbon fiber tube. The tube is stiffer and lighter while offering better thermal stability. Temperature-related expansion is lower for carbon compared to aluminum tubes.
Without a doubt, the SkyWatcher NEQ6 PRO II Equatorial Mount with SynScan (GOTO) is the jewel in SkyWatcher's crown. With unmatched reliability and robustness, the NEQ6 equatorial mount is the guarantee to start deep sky photography with guarantees and at the most economical price possible.
The German SKYWATCHER equatorial mounts with the integrated SynScan system are high-quality observing platforms with well thought-out mechanics and electronics.
The main features of the German GOTO equatorial mounts are summarized below:
PC operation:
SKYWATCHER SynScan mounts come standard with the revolutionary SynScan Computer Controller. Locating an astronomical object has never been so easy and fun. The telescope responds immediately to keystrokes on the controller, executing the indicated operations. The SynScan series telescopes can also be remotely controlled from a PC using any Planetary software (Cartes du Ciel, The Sky, etc) and via RS-232 connection to the control knob. There is even the possibility to optionally purchase a GPS to facilitate the most accurate entry of time, date and location. The SynScan firmware can be upgraded via internet with a specific and free software.
Motors, slewing rings and bearings:
The SKYWATCHER mounts of the SynScan series use DC stepper motors with high Torque capacity and micro-stepping control technology for maximum accuracy. Bronze crown and worm gear system for precision mechanical incremental movement to minimize gear backlash.
Speeds and tracking modes:
The versatility of the SynScan system allows various search and tracking speeds to be selected. The tracking modes are: Lunar, Solar and Sidereal. The mount is compatible with use in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
Database:
The SynScan computer includes a database of over 40,000 objects in memory. The library includes objects for advanced studies, following the existing catalog system: NGC, IC, Caldwell, Messier and other lists plus 25 user-defined objects (comets, asteroids, etc).
Astrophotography:
Astrophotography enthusiasts will invaluably appreciate the presence of the AUTO-GUIDER port that allows autoguider functions to be performed via a PC. The SynScan firmware includes the SynScangramming algorithm for periodic error correction (this error is natural and inherent to all corona-bisenfin systems). In addition, this algorithm can be complemented with the Backlash compensation function (technical term to describe gear backlash) for both AR and DEC. In this way it is possible to have uniform GOTO's and tracking.
