Skywatcher Evolux 82ED APO Refractor

The Sky Watcher Evolux 82ED APO Refractor Telescope, model S11310, is designed for astrophotography enthusiasts seeking a balance between portability and optical performance. It features an 82 mm aperture and a 530 mm focal length, resulting in a focal ratio of f/6.5, which supports detailed observations and captures of celestial objects. The apochromatic doublet design (APO) with ED glass minimizes chromatic aberration and delivers sharp, high-contrast views with accurate color reproduction. Made from durable materials, the telescope includes a retractable dew shield for protection and comfort during transport. Weighing approximately 2.5 kg, it is lightweight for its class and suitable for field use without compromising stability. The length of 360 mm when collapsed enhances portability, while the 2.5-inch (63.5 mm) rack and pinion focuser ensures precise adjustments. Compatible with standard 1.25-inch (31.75 mm) eyepieces and accessories, this model is ideal for capturing deep-sky objects, planets, and lunar details. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced users in astronomy, focusing on reliability and easy integration with mounts and cameras for astrophotography setups.
