BRESSER REFLECTOR 130/650 EQ3 Newton telescope with mount

BRESSER REFLECTOR 130/650 EQ3

As a rule, we do not have such good visibility conditions in our region - the ambient light (light pollution) and weather-related losses are the rule. Living in a city and watching from "balcony" is especially difficult. In the case of this device, the problems of so-called "seeing" are not so apparent due to the opening. A bigger one
Opening would have more difficulty delivering a calm picture. What use is more power through more opening, if the image blurs and the instrument can not show this performance? - Have I brought you to an important consideration? Then: Under the topic "advantages-disadvantages" - worth knowing for beginners and advanced -
on our home page smart, there is a lot of explanation!

This telescope lets you have a lot of success even under unfavorable conditions! A well-defined picture will bring you "closer to heaven". The best telescope is always where you look through the most and that gives you as often as possible beautiful experiences!


High quality beginner telescope
Opening: 130mm / focal length: 650mm
Ideal for large-scale celestial objects
Equatorial mount with flexible shafts
Stable tripod stand for high stability
Basics:

There are not only alternators in the car! :-)
Newton telescopes are considered (and are) basically high-powered telescopes. From f / 5 I define again as particularly bright. When observing the moon, we definitely recommend a filter to reduce the glare effect. - The moon reflects so much light that the light should be attenuated (especially at low magnification). Also note the dark adaptation of the eye. For example, if I want to observe deep sky objects after the moon, the adaptation of the eye takes a certain amount of time before I can perceive the much fainter ones again in detail.
And that brings us to the objects that such a Newton can show in abundance - visually and photographically!
Deep sky objects (ie galaxies, nebulae, star clusters ...) do not require a high magnification, but a corresponding light gathering power. For photography, this also means the shortest possible exposure time for a shot.
Planets (and moon) require a higher magnification and thus a Barlow lens ???? for focal length extension.
So with this device also beautiful details on the moon and planets can be seen! So you do not have to do without this field of application:
An (almost) all-rounder among the telescopes focusing on deep sky.


Due to the versatility of this telescope and the reasonable price, this device is also very interesting for school astronomy.

BRESSER Reflector 130/650 EQ3
Its 260x maximum useful achievable magnification offers beautiful lunar and detailed planet observations (such as the rings of Saturn, moon shadow games on Jupiter or its large red spot). Interesting deep-sky excursions to brighter objects, such as the Orion Nebula, the open double star cluster (h and chi) in Perseus or even the galaxy groups M81 are focal point of the telescope (because of the short focal length).
Due to the short focal length, we recommend for moon and planet observation the enclosed Barlow lens.

Unlike the longer focal length model, this unit is designed for deep sky objects and wide field observation.

Due to the included 3x Barlow lens one is very flexible in observing and enlarging the objects.

The mount:

The equatorial mounting of the telescope 130/650 makes it possible for the observer to navigate the telescope precisely in the starry sky. Once the mount is oriented north with the optical axis, you only need one hand to track the target. The stable construction provides a solid foundation.
