The
Celestron OMNI XLT series offers a range of
equatorial mount manual telescopes with different optical designs, ideal for that amateur observer but wanting to go beyond the simple initiation range, for example the Astromaster or Powerseeker series.
The
Celestron Omni 150XLT telescope is a telescope with a Newtonian optical design, prepared for
deep sky observation. The
XLT optical treatment and the quality of the two mirrors guarantee perfect light transmission and an absolutely clear observation.
The telescope aperture is
150mm with an
f / 5 focal ratio, making it an ideal telescope for deep sky observation. It comes equipped with
a 25mm eyepiece that gives you
30X magnification and a 6x30 finder.
