SPXVX10L Orion Newton 254 / 1600mm - 97% Ref. - MICRO - 1/8 Lambd

One of Orion's most popular Newtons, especially for CCD applications in the deep sky and photography and observation of the moon and planets.

The Orion SPX 250 f / 6.3 offers a particularly sharp image on the axis, with a relatively small capture mirror of 50mm diameter. This low level of shadowing is mainly counteracted by planetary observations.

Another advantage of the moderate aperture ratio of f / 6.3 can be found in the Deep Sky photography. There is no longer a need for a coma corrector to become stars, e.g. in the typical digital SLR cameras, punctiform to the edge.

The device is with only 12kg deadweight (tube with optics) a real lightweight and is still supported by compact and inexpensive mounts.

Deep Sky Photography:

Each SPX Newton allows focus on astrophotography. You get the camera easily in the focal plane. The back focus is far enough out.

In addition, the secondary mirror is dimensioned so that a good illumination of the image field is required. The typical DSLR cameras can be used up to the edge of the chip.
