Skywatcher Equinox 120 OTA



The Skywatcher Equinox 120 OTA is the star of the Equinox Series. Its generous aperture makes it an ideal observing instrument for solar system and deep space objects alike, and it really shines on double stars.

For astrophotography, the Equinox 120 features an f/7.5 focal ratio – more than speedy enough for today’s sensitive CCDs and digital SLR cameras. Plus, it can be coupled with a common SCT focal reducer to achieve even faster speeds.
