Skywatcher 300pds Explorer Telescope



The Skywatcher 300PDS Newtonian Reflector incorporates the same superb mirror-set as the Explorer-300P but with two significant advantages.

A Dual-Speed 10:1 ratio focuser is now included for excellent focusing precision. Also the tube length has been slightly shortened to optimise performance for prime-focus photography.

This very large aperture high quality parabolic reflector Telescope will provide stunning views of Solar system objects along with Galaxies, Nebulae and clusters.

Telescopes in this aperture are regarded as serious instruments and significantly outperform smaller models and are for most the ultimate instrument to own.
