Sky-Watcher 190MN Maksutov-Newtonian

Sky-Watcher 190MN Maksutov-Newtonian produces a flat field, excellent color correction and a sharp image, all thanks to its unique optical design. The telescope has a fast f/5.3 focal ratio and its image quality equals that of a 150mm APO refractor, but with only at a fraction of the price. Compared to a similarly sized Schmidt-Newtonian, the Maksutov-Newtonian yields a sharper and more contrasty image. Naturally, the Maksutov-Newtonian is an excellent visual performer, too. The exceptional design allows the image to be magnified significantly for planetary observations.
