The Levenhuk SkyMatic 135 GTA telescope is a reflector on an azimuth mount with GoTo function. The large aperture (f/5) of the telescope is not only suitable for astronomical observation, but also for astrophotography. Lunar craters with a diameter of only 4.5 miles, the rings of Saturn, the change of seasons on Mars, and distant nebulae and galaxies – all can be observed in detail through this telescope. You can also see the most striking objects from the Messier and NGC catalogues, asteroids, comets and much more.
The maximum useful magnification of the telescope is 260x with a resolution of 1.1”. This combination ensures maximum high-definition image quality with magnification, suitable for most astronomical observations.
Two SUPER 10 and SUPER 25 achromatic eyepieces with a diameter of 31.75 millimeters (1.25 inches) are included in the kit and serve as powerful image correction tools. The optics used in the eyepiece are glass and have a special coating. The field of view is 50 to 52 degrees.
The telescope comes with a computer-guided AZ 114 GT SynScan azimuth mount. Thanks to the GoTo function, the telescope is capable of capturing any astronomical object with its coordinates stored in the microprocessor memory with incredible precision. This computer system will provide automatic orientation to more than 42,900 celestial objects.
