Bresser Messier 100/1400 Maksutov EXOS-2

Overgedimensioneerd stabiel: planeetkijken zonder trillingen!

De Bresser Messier 100/1400 EXOS-2 plaatst de lichte Maksutov-optiek op de zware EXOS-2 montering. Die combinatie is bewust overgedimensioneerd: bij 200x staat het beeld muurvast en dempt elke aanraking direct uit.

Maksutov optics: high contrast, no maintenance

The Maksutov design folds a 1400 mm focal length into a short, closed tube. The meniscus lens corrects the mirror almost completely: no chromatic aberration and a small central obstruction, hence high contrast. The 100 mm aperture yields 54x with the included 26 mm eyepiece; use approximately 200x as the maximum (f/14). Collimation is rarely needed, and the optics are virtually maintenance-free. Allow for 30 to 45 minutes of cool-down time: the closed tube needs to reach ambient temperature for the sharpest image.

The EXOS-2 mount

The EXOS-2 is a German equatorial mount of the EQ-5 class with a payload capacity of up to 13 kg. With the polar scope you align quickly and with the slow-motion cables you track objects smoothly. Later expandable with a motor set or the StarTracker GoTo system.

For whom yes, for whom no

Wel: planeetwaarnemers die maximale stabiliteit willen met groeiruimte naar motorisering. Niet: wie licht wil reizen; de EQ-3 of EXOS-1 uitvoering weegt beduidend minder. Vergelijk via de Buying guide Whether the page with catadioptric telescopes. Meer Bresser is on the merk page.
