Skywatcher Esprit 150EDX 150 mm f/7 Triplet APO Refractor

Skywatcher Esprit-150EDX 150 mm f/7 Super Triplet Apo

This apo offers more aperture and focal length than the smaller Esprit-EDX, using a triplet objective with an APO element made of Japanese Ohara FPL53. The apo is designed for astrophotography as well as for visual observation. It is not very usable for mobile astronomy and better suited for an observatory. With the # 20190 flattener, the Esprit-150 becomes an imaging system with a flat field of view, with the # 20096 0.77x reducer/flattener a powerful astrograph with f/5.39. The ESPRIT has a 360° rotator built into the eyepiece side, allowing perfect orientation of the camera to the object. The focuser itself, a 3" version, can also be rotated.

Skywatcher ESPRIT EDX Apo - optical and mechanical perfection

ESPRIT apochromats from Skywatcher are known for their very good optics with color-pure imaging. Numerous outstanding deep-sky photos, but also high-resolution lunar and planetary photos as well as testimonials from many satisfied observers prove this. The new ESPRIT EDX use the same proven optics as their predecessors, but offer an improved mechanical design. The focuser in particular has been significantly improved and now also impresses demanding astrophotographers.
