The Newton Wide Photo are the great telescopes for observing or photographing faint objects, at very low cost. Designed for deep-sky photography, it's very well suited also for deepsky and planetary observations. Lightweigth and compact, we suggest a HEQ5 or type mount while for photographic use we suggest at least an EQ6 type mount.
Newton Wide Photo intubation and mechanical quality
A lot of attention is given at the detail. The aluminum intubation internally opaque ensures better contrast and avoids any reflections. The primary cell with 9 points provides a solid support and an easier and more precise collimation. Together with the dove-tail type Vixen bar are provided the support rings, that guarantee a remarkable stability to the optical tube. They are also useful for connecting other instruments along with Newton, for example if you need to mount a guide scope. Spiders of the secondary mirror are very thin and rigid, an advantage both esthetically and mechanically.
The Crayford focuser comes with a micrometric reduction 1:10 and 50,8 mm accesories connection. The Newton Wide Photo is the ideal telescope for those who want to approch themselves to astrophotography. Thanks to the reducer supplied as standard, can be installed 50.8 mm diameter accessories and 31.8 mm. The 9x50 finder comes with its support, its 50mm aperture provides a wide field of view. The low-expansion mirrors ensure more rapid acclimatization and a reduces thermal expansion. For photographic use we recommend the use of a coma corrector, to correct small defects natives of optical design.
