The Sky-Watcher SKYMAX Maksutov-Cassegrains are the ultimate take-anywhere telescopes. They are also ideal if working space is limited. Despite their small dimensions, they pack a powerful punch. Their High-Resolution, diffraction limited optical systems are multi-coated to maximize contrast and image sharpness. This compact telescope, with its high-resolution multi-coated optical system, excels at medium-to-high-powers for the examination of the surface detail on the Moon, planets and also for double-star observations. Also useful for terrestrial use.
The telescope comes with a strong computerized stand, that automatically points the telescope to over 42,900 objects in the night sky. Our SKYMAX 150 Pro benefits from the inclusion of Schott glass in its construction. Schott is the recognized world leader in glass utilized for precision optical lens systems, including medical instrumentation and famous brand camera lenses.
