Skywatcher EXPLORER-200P (OTA) 200mm (8") f/1000 Parabolic Newtonian Reflector Telescope
by Sky-Watcher
Price: £250.00
This second hand Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-200P is a fantastic choice for intermediate-to-advanced astronomers but also suitable for the very serious adult beginner. With a much larger 200mm of light gulping aperture combined with its superb parabolic optics and superior resolving power, even feinter objects can be viewed. This telescope is a highly capable all-rounder with superb performance for the observation of the Moon, planets, nebulae, galaxies, star clusters, double stars etc.
- Magnifications : The maximum magnification for an 8" parabolic reflector is theoretically up to 400x, but this is typically limited by seeing conditions and the target being observed. For most nights, a practical maximum magnification would be around 240x to 320x, depending on the quality of the telescope and the observing environment.
