Skywatcher N 130/650 EQ-2 Telescope Explorer

Skywatcher N 130/650 EQ-2

The Skywatcher N 130/650 EQ-2 gives you a quick and powerful start into the night sky. You'll see immediate results: a bright moon, sharp planets and striking nebulae. The scope remains light, compact and easy to use, even if this is your first telescope.

Quick start with clear image

The 130 mm aperture captures a lot of light, keeping your image clear. That makes it easier to see more detail. Think of the shadows on the moon or the rings of Saturn. The short focal length of 650 mm gives you a wide field of view, ideal for finding objects quickly. You'll notice that the scope responds smoothly to any movement, so you can watch quietly without distracting vibrations.

Why this works for you

The f/5 brightness helps you view large sky areas, so you'll find star clusters and bright nebulae faster. The tube is compact, so it stays steady even with a light wind. You set it up easily, you pick it up quickly, and you take it with you just as easily.

EQ-2 mount for accurate tracking

The EQ-2 helps you track the movement of the sky without fuss. You set the pole height, aim at an object, and simply follow it with small rotary movements. This keeps your target neatly in focus, even at higher magnifications. Counterweights keep everything balanced, keeping the scope rotating smoothly. The tripod is light, adjustable and sturdy enough for comfortable observing.

Complete package to get started right away

With two eyepieces and a red-dot finder, you'll quickly find your first target. The 25mm eyepiece lets you see large areas. The 10mm eyepiece brings you closer so you can see more detail. Everything feels instantly familiar, even if you've never used a telescope before.

For whom this telescope is ideal

The Skywatcher N 130/650 EQ-2 is perfect if you want to start the hobby without high costs, but want enough power to see more than just the moon. You'll see the cloud bands on Jupiter, the rings of Saturn and bright deep-sky objects like Orion. You'll discover a lot, without complicated technique or difficult settings.
