Apochromatic refractors occupy a special place among the instruments of amateur astronomers. Thanks to their special glass material, their lenses are free of the colour aberrations that characterise acromatic lenses, giving them unparalleled contrast and sharpness. With the SkyWatcher Evostar ED 72/420 DS-Pro, the Moon with its seas, tiny craters and troughs is sure to be a breathtaking sight. And Jupiter's cloud-streaked disk or Saturn's magnificent ring seem to "float" in space.
The telescope's short focal length of 420 mm is particularly useful for photography: its huge field of view allows you to see even the largest star clusters and nebulae. The excellent optics provide sharp, contrasty images at high magnifications of up to 140x, and SkyWatcher's unique MHC anti-reflection coating ensures maximum light transmission (99.5%).
The most magnificent objects in the universe can be seen even at the highest magnifications.
The SkyWatcher Evostar ED 72/420 DS-Pro tube is equipped with a precision 2" Crayford barrel, which also features a 1:10 ratio microfocus eyepiece. The 2"/1.25" adapter is not part of the standard package, so to use 1.25" accessories, you will need to purchase this separately. The tube ring and prism ring are standard accessories! The telescope tube comes in a handy aluminium case.
