Announcement: SkyWatcher HAC125DX MINIGRAPH 125 mm f/2 Honders Advanced Catadioptric Astrograph
THE ULTIMATE PORTABLE ASTROGRAPH!!
The all-new Honders Advanced Catadioptric or HAC125DX Minigraph is the smallest and fastest astrograph you can find.
Honders' advanced catadoptic optical design maximizes its glass with hybrid refractive and reflective surfaces to deliver the sharpest, fastest, and lightest catadioptric mini-astrograph (minigraph) available.
The Sky-Watcher Honders Advanced Catadioptric (HAC) telescope is a sophisticated high-speed astrograph for fast, wide-field imaging in a compact and lightweight body. Unlike other small refractor astrographs, the HAC125DX features a lightning-fast f/2 aperture, allowing you to capture images five times faster than with standard f/4.9 optics. This speed means more data in less time and eliminates the need for auto-tracking!
Compared to the original HAC125, the HAC125DX features a rear-focusing mechanism on the main lens. This allows for the use of a wider variety of cameras than the original model and makes focusing in the field easier. The telescope features a 16 mm image circle, ideal for IMX533 and 585 cameras. Despite its small size of just 40 cm, the HAC125DX offers a powerful imaging platform for both beginners and advanced users.
The HAC125DX is the ultimate portable astrograph. Its bright optics and compact size make it easy to enjoy your hobby. Attach it to your favorite mount and capture the universe in no time! The HAC125DX isn't just another astrograph—it's a minigraph ready for all your astronomy adventures.
