Skywatcher AP 82\/530 - compact apochromatic refractor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Skywatcher AP 82\/530 Evolux-82ED shows stars and nebulae brilliantly sharp. The doublet ED lens ensures high contrasts and pure colors. This allows you to see details clearly, without distortion. This telescope is light, compact and ideal for astrophotographers and visual observers who appreciate precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight and portable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With a tube length of 580 mm and a weight of 2.92 kg, you can easily take the telescope with you. The aluminum tube remains sturdy and stable. The sliding dew hood protects your image from condensation. Everything fits safely into the included transport case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Skywatcher<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Accurate focusing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 2\u2033 rack and pinion focuser with dual speed lets you focus quickly and precisely. This keeps constellations and nebulae in focus, even in longer shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perfect for astrophotography<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Evolux 82ED is a wide-angle instrument. With an optional flattener, stars at the edges of your image stay sharp. The reducer shortens the focal length, making your shots faster and brighter. This is how you get the most out of your camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reliable and sound<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This telescope combines modern optics with a sturdy design. Everything is designed for immediate use, without complicated installation. With each telescope you get our 80-page beginner's manual \u201cTelescope ABC\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we recommend<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2713 Astrophotography: eminently suitable
\u2713 Nebulae & galaxies: bright and sharp
\u2713 Planets: limited detail visible
\u2717 Beginners: requires experience for optimal use
\u2717 Observatory: not suitable<\/p>\n\n\n\n
