SW102

This Sky-Watcher 102mm (4in ) f/5 telescope is a two-element, air-spaced, fully multi-coated objective, achromatic refractor, which can give exciting rich field astronomical views. It can provide excellent vistas of star fields, clusters, nebulae, galaxies etc. Also a fine terrestrial telescope when mounted on an alt-azimuth mount. Crisp images at a reasonable price make it an excellent beginner's "first telescope", or a great travelling telescope for a more advanced observer. An excellent lens for photography.
