This lightweight 5" Newtonian is the ideal entry-level telescope for demanding newcomers to astronomy looking for a very capable telescope suitable for both visual Astronomy and entry into Astrophotography.

Thanks to the high light intensity, it delivers both bright and sharp images making it a great all-rounder. The R130SF is not only ideal for viewing and photographing the moon and planets, but you can also use it to observe other deep space objects such as star clusters, nebulae and galaxies.

You will be amazed when you look at the lunar surface with incredible clarity and sharpness at its many craters and geographical features. Saturn's rings through this high-quality Newtonian is also a sight you will never forget. Even from darker skies the views of the Orion Nebula or the Andromeda galaxy becomes also a remarkable experience.

For astrophotography, the T2 connector on the focuser allows you to connect a DSLR camera with an optional T2 ring so you won't need a separate camera adapter.
You can also use the Vixen dovetail slide rail to attach the telescope to many other Alt AZ / Equatorial mounts.
