Who it's for
Thanks to its small secondary mirror and low obstruction, this Maksutov is the ideal instrument for high-resolution planetary and lunar imaging: just a 2x or 3x Barlow lens is enough to achieve exceptional magnification. Its high contrast also makes it well suited to deep-sky observation. The EQ5 SynScan mount, with automated pointing and an autoguider port, is a solid base for both visual observation and long-exposure astrophotography.
