Everything you need to know about the Sky-Watcher 127mm f/11.8 Maksutov

The Sky-Watcher Mak127 combines compactness and performance. Twice as bright as the Mak90 , the observation of deep-sky objects becomes more evident. In planetariums, the highest resolution allows you to start taking images with good results. The primary mirror, combined with the secondary mirror and a multi-layer coated concave meniscus, thus yields surprising results. Observing Saturn, accompanied by its rings, is fantastic. Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system, reveals fine details of its atmosphere.

The Moon is a marvel that you can contemplate for years, given the sheer number of craters that dot its surface. There is no chromatic aberration, unlike achromatic lenses. . The tube is very compact and the assembly is easily transportable. When complemented with eyepieces of a long focal length, the observation of the brightest deep-sky objects, such as the Great Orion Nebula (M42), the Hercules Cluster (M13), or the Perseus Double Cluster, will satisfy both the beginner and the curious amateur. Under a very dark sky, other objects can be easily distinguished (especially those in the Messier catalog).

Focusing, a key element for obtaining quality images, is achieved by translating the primary mirror to provide sufficient focus travel with numerous accessories. The warming (especially the cooling of the meniscus) is rapid (much less than 30 min). .
