Skywatcher Skyliner-150P Classic Dobsonian - Aperture 150mm / Focal length 1200mm / f/8
... a powerful Dobsonian with 6" aperture and good craftmanship

Skywatcher Dobsonian 150/1200 mm (f/8)

A Dobsonian telescope offers the best optical performance for your money. 90% of the value are concentrated in the optical tube assembly (mirror cell, focuser etc.). So you get much aperture for a good price.

Skywatcher Dobsonians are well crafted and will bring observing fun for many years to you. At Teleskop-Service, a Dobsonian is no dead-end-street. We offer all possible optional equipment like equatorial mounts, dozens of eyepieces, and even equipment for astro photography.

The SKD6's optical system has an aperture of 15cm (6"). It has a parabolic main mirror for high image definition. Due to the long focal length, the secondary mirror can be kept small making this telescope for a lunar and planetary specialist. The very high contrast leads to detail visibility near the physical limitations. Of course, deep sky observations are also pleasing. Pinpoint stars over the entire field of view make observing galaxies and nebulae an aesthetic delight. Skywatcher guarantees a difraction limited optic.

Skywatcher Dobson Altitude bearing

Horizontal and vertical adjustment of the SKD8 is very easy. It has gliding bearings in both axes. The telescope remains stable - just point, release and observe. Vertical adjustment is aided by the "tension control" system (see picture above). Here, you can adjust for the stiffness in this axis and even lock it.

The 2" focuser

This Dobsonian has a smooth and precise 2" focser with a reducer to 1.25". So you can use any astronomical eyepiece.

A photo of the moon, showing the Skywatcher Dobsonians performance:

Mr. Degen made this pretty photo of the moon October 28th, 2009. This is a nearly unprocessed photo, captured with a Fuji Finepix F40 in eyepiece projection through a TS HR planetary 8mm.

Congratulations to this successful photo!
