Discover the optimal balance of quality and affordability with Sky-Watcher's Evostar apochromatic doublet refractors. These telescopes feature superior extra-low dispersion glass, providing an impeccable viewing experience. The proprietary lens assembly ensures sharp stars against a backdrop of contrast-rich skies, thanks to the fluorite-based ED glass elements and Metallic High-Transmission Coatings™ (MHTC™) that virtually eliminate false color. Dual baffles are in place to prevent stray light interference, ensuring pristine astrophotography results.
The telescope's tube is a masterpiece itself, crafted with precision using aluminum and adorned with a stunning black diamond metal-flake finish. Opting for a doublet refractor over a triplet brings advantages such as reduced weight and cost, allowing you to allocate more budget to enhance your astrophotography setup.
The Evostar 80ED comes complete in a foam-lined aluminum case with a suite of accessories, including a 2-inch Crayford-style focuser, 2-inch dielectric diagonal, two 1.25-inch eyepieces (5mm and 25mm), an 8x50 right-angle finderscope, tube rings, and a V-style dovetail. Elevate your stargazing experience with this meticulously designed telescope package.
