Levenhuk Skyline PRO 90 MAK is a catadioptric telescope with a Maksutov-Cassegrain optical design. This design allows for a long focal length of 1250 millimeters (49.2 inches) housed in a tube only 25 centimeters (9.8 inches) long, meaning you can easily take it to the countryside to observe the stars. The 90-millimeter (3.5 inches) aperture and long focal length make this telescope perfect for high-power planetary observations and provide high-quality views. At medium magnification, you can observe various deep-sky objects like nebulae and star clusters. This model is for those who do not want to worry about carrying bulky equipment to the countryside for observations but still want to have a powerful instrument for their observations. Additionally, this telescope can be easily mounted on a regular tripod and, with the addition of an erecting prism, can become a powerful spotting scope for terrestrial observations.
The lenses and mirrors have undergone FMC coating, which allows maximum light gathering and increases their service life. The robust and lightweight aluminum tube is set on an equatorial mount equipped with slow-motion control knobs. Furthermore, the equatorial drive system (sold separately) can be installed on the mount. It features graduated circles that, after quick adjustment, allow you to locate objects according to their celestial coordinates and track them with a simple turn of an equatorial adjustment knob. The height-adjustable tripod includes a convenient accessory tray where you can store all the items in use. The red dot finder scope allows quick movement to the desired position. The kit includes 10 mm (0.4 inches) and 25 mm (0.98 inches) eyepieces, with a 52° field of view and magnifications of 125x and 50x respectively. The lenses are glass and have undergone FMC treatment. Focusing the telescope is easy to adjust, as is collimating the primary mirror by turning the designated knob. This model supports 31.75-millimeter (1.25 inches) eyepieces, allowing you to use eyepieces purchased separately, not just those supplied with the kit, thereby increasing the magnification to the maximum practical power of 180x. The focuser has a standard T-thread, allowing you to connect an SLR camera via an adapter and use the telescope for astrophotography.
The Levenhuk Skyline PRO series is designed for experienced and demanding astronomers and includes a range of different models. A common feature is maximum precision and reliability during observations and astrophotography, as well as high-quality materials and lenses.
