The additional aperture of this model will give a very high performance which will satisfy even the keenest observer. A 200mm (8") telescope is considered to be a medium to large aperture for amateur use. Diffraction limited, hand figured optics produce incredible views of all celestial objects and as such, your eye will be presented with Galaxies, Nebulae and Clusters as you have probabaly never seen before. This classic Newtonian system is designed to give you a wide field, for both visual and photographic. The mechanics on this model are the same as the others in the range. The tube assembly can be detached from its cradles via two strong latches, or the tube cradles can be separated from the mount within seconds, by two well disguised hand wheels. All telescopes in the Europa range can be precisely balanced for long or short exposure photography and CCD work. This telescope is an excellent choice for those who's first love in astronomy is deep sky work, with very good performance still being achieved on planetary lunar work.
Now featuring Vixen's world wide famous GP-2 Polaris mount of superb mechanical and tracking capabilities on an adjustable Varnished wood Tripod with accessory tray.
