Skywatcher N 130/650 Explorer-130PS AZ-5 Telescope

Powerful Newton for beginners

The Skywatcher N 130/650 Explorer-130PS AZ-5 is a compact Newton telescope that quickly introduces stargazing. With a 130 mm aperture, it captures 30% more light than a 114 mm model. That means you get bright images of the Moon, planets and many deep-sky objects. Its short design makes it stable and low-vibration, even on smaller tripods.

Clear view of stars and nebulae

The f/5 ratio gives you a wide-field view. Open clusters and nebulae are instantly visible, while the Moon and planets remain sharp and detailed. The parabolic main mirror minimizes distortion, so star points remain pure.

AZ-5 mount for smooth tracking

The AZ-5 mount moves easily and accurately. Slip torques and fine worm gears let you track objects without a hitch. The wide adjustment range lets you view everything from the horizon to the zenith. You can even attach an optional instrument via an L-holder.

Ready to use and mobile

The telescope comes complete with two eyepieces, slow-motion cable and Red Dot finder. Within minutes it is ready for observation. Its lightweight, compact design makes it easy to take with you and set up quickly.

Perfect for starters

This Newton is ideal for beginners who want to explore both planets and deep-sky objects. It combines luminosity, stability and ease of use in one elegant package.
