Skywatcher Diamondback 200/1000 NEQ5 Telescope

The Newton SkyWatcher 200/1000 mm Telescope with NEQ5 mount is of high optical quality and offers a robust and precise mount, ideal for the discerning hobbyist. The tube of the telescope is of the Newton reflector type which has a great capacity for capturing light partly also thanks to its wide diameter of 200 mm (8 ”). We will be able to prominently observe fine details of objects in the solar system and deep sky such as galaxies, nebulae and star clusters in the way you have always wanted to see them.

The German NEQ5 equatorial mount provides the precision and stability necessary to minimize vibrations and obtain smooth and fluid movements even with a tube of such characteristics as the Blackdiamond 200 / 1000mm. It has a motor (optional) of a single axis or double coupled axis. The Skywatcher NEQ5 mount is the perfect tool for those amateurs who want to make serious observations and enter deep sky astrophotography. In addition, it incorporates a space for the placement of the polar finder (not included), latitude adjustment with integrated micrometer, azimuth adjustment for polar alignment, aluminum position circles, slow-motion controls and spirit level for optimal stability.
