Omegon Pro Newton: to sail the cosmos with the wind in your favor
Astrophoto or visual observation? With this optical tube you won't have to ask yourself this question, because it can do both. This series is nourished by the elements that turn a simple optical tube into a powerful astronomical instrument.

With it you can enjoy well-defined lunar craters, richly detailed planets and deep sky objects that will appear brighter than with a standard telescope. With the Omegon Pro Newton you will be absolutely right: we provide you with an ideal combination of finish and quality so that everything works perfectly on your excursions through the Universe.

Summary of advantages:

  • Optical tube with an excellent finish: for years and years of observations
  • BK-7 main mirror with 94% reflectance: clearer images than a normal mirror for sublime contrast
  • 2" Crayford eyepiece: soft focus to help you find the perfect point of sharpness
  • Further backfocus : attach your SLR camera or any other
  • Easy to mount: thanks to the prismatic solution, the tube is compatible with all frames with Synta/Vixen/Skywatcher/Celestron system

High quality metal tube with excellent finish
The tube of this telescope is perfect for getting started in such a fascinating hobby. It replaces plastic with metal with a very careful finish, an unavoidable condition in the world of telescopes to be able to continue observing the night sky for many years.

BK7 main mirror
The heart of the telescope is its BK7 glass main mirror. Compared to "conventional" glass, this offers a more stable shape in the cooling phase, meaning that image quality improves even when the tube has not fully acclimatized to room temperature.

Improved treatment: 94% reflectance rate for brighter images
When you dive into the depths of the Universe through the telescope you see objects that you would never be able to see with the naked eye. To achieve this there are two vital elements: the aperture and the main mirror, which, in this telescope, is equipped with a reflectance rate of 94%. So you can enjoy extra-clear images and premium contrast to explore the sky and see even the faintest deep-sky objects.

2" Crayford eyepiece for ideal sharpness
The 2" Crayford SingleSpeed ​​eyepiece holder allows you to focus with any eyepiece of your choice. And all thanks to its ball bearing, which ensures smooth and precise sliding to find the exact point of focus.

Astrophotography: compatible with your SLR camera
In theory, to take astrophotos all you have to do is attach the camera and press the shutter release, but sometimes telescopes don't make it so easy for us. However, this optic offers enough back focus to make it so simple. What does this mean? Well, you can achieve the perfect focus to take dream photos even with a large DSLR camera.

Simplified mounting – compatible with most frames
The 33.5 cm long Vixen-style prismatic rail serves as an interface for virtually any of the most acceptable mounts. This is the definitive standard for most high-quality frames. And best of all, the tube sets up and balances in seconds.

Spider with thin legs and maximum contrast
Any astronomer worth his salt knows that the spider is not the eight-legged insect that weaves its web through the corners, but rather the piece that holds the secondary mirror. In this case its legs are only a few millimeters thick. The result is an excellent contrast.

Our assessment: in general, a perfect tube to start or level up.

What do you prefer: f/5 or/6 tubes?
This telescope is available in both variants, with an aperture ratio of f/5 or/6. But what is the difference? Which is the best for me?

The aperture ratio reveals information about the relationship between aperture and focal length and thus about the properties of the tube:

Properties of f/5:

  • Shorter format: the telescope is somewhat more compact and suitable even for smaller mounts
  • Smaller focal length: used to take short exposure astrophotos with a wide field of view
  • Recommendation for ambitious beginners, experts and astrophotographers


Properties of f/6:

  • Longer focal length: it is easier to achieve higher magnifications with the eyepiece; ideal for planets and planetary nebulae
  • Cheaper eyepieces also offer good image quality
  • The telescope is easier to adjust and hides small adjustment errors, which means that good contrast can be achieved with the planets
  • Recommendation for beginners and visual observers who want to work with higher magnifications but without getting complicated
