EXPLORER-150PDS 150mm (6”) f/5 Parabolic Dual-Speed Newtonian Reflector (choice of mounts available)

EXPLORER-150PDS
150mm (6”) f/5 Parabolic Dual-Speed Newtonian Reflector 

The new Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-150PDS Newtonian Reflector incorporates the same superb mirror-set as the Explorer-150P Black Diamond Series, but with two significant advantages. A Dual-Speed 10:1 ratio focuser is now included for excellent focusing precision. Also the tube length has been slightly shortened to optimise performance for prime-focus photography.

Even better performance for astro-photography and visual use can be achieved when used in combination with Sky-Watcher’s Newtonian coma corrector (Prod.Code 20233).

• Magnification (with eyepiece supplied) x30
• Highest Practical Power (Potential) x300
