SKY-WATCHER HAC200 DX f/2 ASTROGRAPH
The Sky-Watcher HAC200 DX is a fast astrograph utilizing the Honders Advanced Catadioptric optical design. Combining an aperture of 200mm and focal ratio of f/2 in a compact design, the HAC200 DX gathers light at a rate very few telescopes can match.
Built on the Honders Advanced Catadioptric (HAC) optical design, this innovative system provides pinpoint stars across a generous field of view, with a 30mm corrected image circle ideal for modern imaging sensors up to APS-C. Focusing is handled at the back end of the telescope, simplifying setup and ensuring precise focus adjustments during imaging sessions.
The HAC200 DX is compatible with cameras that have M48 x 0.75 and M42 x 0.75 threads, so common cooled cameras up to APS-C can be utilized without issue.
Cables can be cleanly routed through the detachable dew shield thanks to an included cable holder. A top-mounted finder-style handlebar allows you to easily attach a guide scope or control unit. A 12V DC battery back powers the rear fan (batteries not included).
An optional motorized focuser will be available soon.
