  • Sir Patrick Moore CBE FRS"I have used a great number of telescopes; some are good, some mediocre and some bad. To me the Sky-Watcher range of instruments are very good indeed, and suited to amateurs of all kinds – and they are not priced out of the market! Excellent value.
    Use them and enjoy them."
    Sir Patrick Moore CBE FRS (1923 to 2012)
"With six inches of clear aperture, optimised colour correction, impressive photographic performance and an attractive price, the Evostar-150ED DS-Pro may well set a new benchmark for must-have telescopes." BBC SKY AT NIGHT MAGAZINE

Apochromatic Refractors, due to their unobstructed, text-book like diffraction patterns, produce the sharpest, highest quality optical imaging available, bar-none, aperture for aperture, of any telescope optical system.

The high-end Evostar-150ED Apo doublet features an undisclosed combination of one Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass element and a matched crown element. 

Each air-to-glass objective lens surface has exotic anti-reflection metallic coatings applied, to ensure optimum light throughput of approaching 99.5%.

The proprietary Sky-Watcher “Metallic High-Transmission Coatings” (MHC) are the finest photon anti-rejection coatings in their class.

A matching 0.85x Focal Reducer/Corrector is available separately for this product, as well as Deluxe Machined Aluminium Tube Rings and 75mm Dovetail Bar.

The Evostar-150ED is supplied without eyepieces, finderscope and star diagonal.
