From stargazing to astrophotography, the Sky-Watcher Quattro 200P Imaging Newtonian 8" (205 mm) Telescope is a versatile, high-quality instrument designed to enhance your astronomical experiences. This advanced telescope, renowned for its stylish design and durable construction, features a large 8" aperture, providing a brighter and clearer view of celestial objects.
Engineered to perfection, this innovative telescope, like all Sky-Watcher reflectors, boasts borosilicate mirrors with a quartz overcoat. This unique feature ensures an impressive 94% reflectivity, enhancing the quality of your observations and images. The optical system is further enhanced by an oversized secondary mirror, designed to provide greater illumination for DSLRs and CCDs using full-frame sensors.
The Quattro 200P's optical tube, crafted from rolled steel, showcases Sky-Watcher's signature glossy metal-flake Black Diamond finish on the exterior. This not only adds to the telescope's aesthetic appeal but also contributes to its durability, ensuring it stands up to the rigors of regular use.
While the Quattro 200P excels in deep sky imaging, it's also an exceptional tool for visual observation. Its wide aperture and short focal length combine to produce a bright and vivid viewing experience, making it an ideal choice for astronomers keen on both visual and photographic exploration of the cosmos.
The Sky-Watcher Quattro 200P Imaging Newtonian Telescope also features a 2" dual-speed 10:1 ratio focuser for superior focusing precision. The tube length has been slightly shortened to optimize performance for prime-focus photography, ensuring even better performance for both astrophotography and visual use. For optimal results, pair this telescope with the Sky-Watcher Quattro coma corrector.
In summary, the Sky-Watcher Quattro 200P Imaging Newtonian 8" (205 mm) Telescope is a sophisticated, high-performance instrument that caters to both your visual and astrophotography needs, making it a valuable addition to any astronomer's toolkit.
