Refractor Telescope Pack Skywatcher Black Diamond 80ED with EQM-35 PRO Goto mount with customized introductory course


IN TELESCOPIOMANIA WE OFFER YOU NOW TOGETHER WITH YOUR TELESCOPE, OUR PERSONALIZED COURSE OF INITIATION OF ASTRONOMY AND USE OF YOUR GOTO TELESCOPE.

The apochromatic ED refractor tubes of the seriesBLACK DIAMONDFromSKYWATCHERRepresent a range of refracting astronomical telescopes with a well-corrected field and a highly corrected chromatic aberration. Their low dispersion ED optics allow the light to refract through the lens so that the light beam does not scatter much (does not open up) and therefore the image definition is greatly increased. The refractorsSKYWATCHER BLACK DIAMONDAre constructed with a two-element air-spaced objective lens. The second lens element is constructed with high quality fluorinated glassFPL-53(O'HARA version).

ED optics of refracting telescopesBLACK DIAMONDAre made of glassSCHOTT. This brings together the efforts of two market leaders, Synta as a manufacturer of astronomical telescopes and Synta as a manufacturer of astronomical telescopesSCHOTTAs the world's leading manufacturer of the highest quality optical glass.

The new EQM-35 mount is the further evolution of the small NEQ3-2 equatorial mount. Although very practical, the NEQ3-2 is not optimal for astrophotographic use. Therefore, Sky-Watcher finally presents this new version with the modularity of the Star Adventurer series, which already inherits the clearly astrophotographic functionality.

The result is a very versatile and highly modular mount, it is a conventional equatorial mount whose configurations are identical to those of the Star Aventurer range. The big advantage is its maximum load capacity of 10 kg, which allows it to accept Newton Newton 200/1000 or 150/750 optical tubes for visual use, or a 120 mm or 150 mm Maksutov-Cassegrain. From a photographic point of view, such a load capacity gives a lot of freedom, allowing the installation of large professional cameras or long focal length telephoto lenses, always keeping a very good balance.

The straight ascension shaft has undergone an impressive redesign and has grown in diameter and strength, with more massive bearings than on the EQ3-2. As a direct result, the drive gear increases from 130 to 180 teeth, greatly improving tracking accuracy.

The highlight of the EQM-35 mount is its ability to transform into an astrophoto mount. Once the declination head is removed, you get the same options offered by the Star Adventurer mounts: ball head, guiding system, L-bracket with or without counterweight bar...

Whatever the configuration, the functionality of using the polar search engine provided is fully preserved.

The Sky-Watcher EQM-35 Pro Goto modular equatorial mount is equipped as standard with a Goto automatic pointing system, carries an original control box to manage the mount settings for classical and astrophotographic configuration. Disassembling the declination axis, and therefore the motor associated with it, does not impede the tracking and guiding functions in AR. Of course, in the absence of a Dec motor, Goto pointing is disabled. The SynScan control knob completes the set.

Technical specifications:

The Sky-Watcher EQM-35 Pro Goto equatorial mount is supplied with the following accessories:

• 1 equatorial mount EQM-35 Pro Goto
• 2 counterweights weighing 3.5 kg in total
• 1 height-adjustable tubular steel tripod (71 cm to 123 cm)
• 1 Goto motorization kit with SynScan controller
• 1 polar finder
