The Omegon 90 / 1000mm EQ-2 refractor is a sensible and practical choice for getting started observing the night sky. The optics and mounting are both sound and of high quality and are optimally matched to each other.This refractor has an achromatic objective (combining 2 lens elements), which corrects most chromatic aberrations. Irritating colour fringing is thus largely eliminated and the telescope provides a clear and high-contrast image.
With a 90mm lens aperture, this telescope provides you with a truly incredible variety of details when planetary observing. It doesn't matter whether you are observing Jupiter, Mars or Saturn - you can see a wealth of detail on the planet. But the telescope can also be used to observe the brighter deep-sky objects. So the famous Ring Nebula in Lyra, the great Orion Nebula, or glittering open star clusters will provide you with many fascinating hours observing.
The equatorial mount makes it possible to precisely align the optics with the Pole star. It is easy to set up for any beginner and can be easily operated by children. A motorized tracking system can be retrofitted in the right ascension axis as an optional extra.
