Apochromatischer Refraktor Pro APO AP 140/672 Triplet OTA

There are basically two different types of telescope. A distinction is made between refractor (lens) and reflector (mirror) telescopes.

The aperture indicates the diameter of the objective lens or the mirror.

Is the ratio of the aperture to the focal length of a telescope.

Describes the brightness of a star or point-shaped object, which can still just be distinguished by the telescope. The naked eye, for example, can make out stars with a magnitude of up to 6.

Light-gathering capacity of the telescope compared to the eye.

A lens telescope that almost completely corrects chromatic aberration. It consists of three lenses and offers very high optical performance thanks to its design.

There are basically two different construction types: the rack and pinion focuser and the Crayford focuser.

Describes the exact construction of the particular mount and thereby further subdivides the different types of mount.

An OTA is an optical tube without a mount. It is short for optical tube assembly.

Are mainly differentiated between equatorial and altazimuth. A special type of altazimuth mount is the Dobsonian mount.

The Omegon ProApo series are apochromatic refractors with ED lenses in a doublet or triplet design.

Telescopes for safe solar observing.

Telescopes that are supplied as a complete system and are easy to operate.

Telescopes suitable for a fixed mount, whether that is in the garden or an observatory.
