About Sky-Watcher Quattro 150P

Explore the night sky with the Quattro 150P 6" Imaging Newtonian Telescope, a superior choice for both novice and experienced astrophotographers and visual astronomers. This large aperture astrograph is designed to deliver fast and efficient imaging capabilities, featuring an impressive f/4 focal ratio that allows for rapid exposure times. Capture the cosmos with an exposure rate that is 6 times faster than a standard 8-inch f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, and further enhance your astrophotography with the included coma corrector/reducer, which accelerates the process by 8.4 times.

The Quattro 150P is not only optimized for photography but also offers bright, sharp, and detailed views for those who enjoy visual astronomy. The high-quality borosilicate mirrors are treated with Sky-Watcher's exclusive Radiant Aluminum Quartz (RAQ) coatings, ensuring a remarkable 94% reflectivity for brilliant image clarity.

Constructed with durable rolled steel and finished with Sky-Watcher's sleek, glossy metal-flake Black Diamond coating, this telescope is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. The optical tube assembly (OTA) boasts an oversized secondary mirror, which maximizes illumination for DSLR cameras and CCDs equipped with full-frame sensors, making it an ideal choice for serious astrophotography enthusiasts.

The Quattro 150P comes equipped with a precision-engineered 11:1 dual-speed 2-inch Crayford-style focuser, ensuring smooth and accurate focusing, essential for capturing the fine details of distant celestial objects. Adaptable to various eyepieces, the telescope includes 1.25 and 2-inch eyepiece adapters, allowing for a customizable viewing experience.

Additional accessories provided with the Quattro Newtonian include a practical 6x30 finderscope for easy object location, sturdy tube rings, a V-style dovetail plate for secure mounting, a 70 Degree Ultra Wide 22mm eyepiece for expansive views of the night sky, and the aforementioned coma corrector/reducer to optimize your imaging setup.

Whether you're delving into deep-sky photography or simply enjoying the wonders of the universe through visual observation, the Quattro 150P 6" Imaging Newtonian Telescope is engineered to elevate your astronomical experience.
