A high quality, stylish telescope for the more serious astronomer, offering approximately twice the light yield than the SkyMax-90 model and thus permitting a much broader range of astronomical study. The SkyMax-127 Maksutov-Cassegrain - being the top of the range - should satisfy everybody with its high resolution viewing. Comes complete with an EQ3-2 Equatorial Mount with Built-in Polar Finder scope holder, Aluminium Tripod and accessory tray.
"The telescope is optically very good, giving clear, sharp images."
Endorsed and recommended by
Sir Patrick Moore CBE FRS
Review of Skymax-127 OTA
"...Optically, all the lenses are multicoated and the internal baffles had no shiny surfaces that could cause reflections of bright objects...The Focuser was quite smooth with very little image shift...The field was sharp across 80 percent of the view...We were pleased with the quality of the view even when pushing the telescope to higher magnifications...Mars and Saturn bore high magnifications well...The rings of Saturn appeared sharply defined...Turning to the Moon, it was a revelation through the Skymax...This telescope certainly does a good job on the more detailed Solar System objects...In the deep sky, the Skymax performed well on everything to galaxies to nebulae"
