TS Optics Telescope N 200/1000 Carbon Photon OTA (76751)

The TS Optics N 200/1000 Carbon Photon OTA is a Newtonian telescope with a 200mm aperture, offering outstanding detail for deep sky observation. With 78% more light-gathering power than a 150mm telescope, it allows you to see faint structures such as the spiral arms of galaxies and intricate nebula details. Even globular clusters like M13 in Hercules can be sharply resolved to their edges.

The parabolic main mirror is diffraction-limited, ensuring sharp images. High contrast is achieved through the use of a small secondary mirror and thin secondary mirror vanes, making this telescope suitable for both deep sky and planetary observation at higher magnifications.

The sturdy focuser supports 2-inch eyepieces and includes an adapter for 1.25-inch eyepieces. Two eyepieces are included so you can start observing immediately.

With an aperture ratio of f/5, this telescope is classified as a 'fast Newtonian,' making it particularly well-suited for astrophotography. The 8x50 finder scope helps you locate objects that are not visible to the naked eye and assists with navigation in the night sky.

Key advantages include high light-gathering power from the 200mm aperture, a parabolic main mirror for sharp images, and fast optics that are ideal for astrophotography.

The carbon fiber tube reduces overall weight, making transport easier and reducing the load on your mount. Carbon fiber also has a lower thermal expansion coefficient than aluminum or steel, resulting in more stable focus during temperature changes.

TS Optics is a brand of Teleskop-Service.
