The N 130 / 650 telescope:
This telescope is a good starting point for new amateur astronomers. With 30% more light gathering capacity than a 114mm telescope, even more fascinating celestial objects can be observed by amateur astronomer newbies. The 130mm aperture and 650 mm focal length high-performance optics allow you to observe many nebulae and other DSOs. With an f5 aperture ratio, the telescope is also ideal for wide field observing. Breathtakingly beautiful Open clusters are well worth seeking out too. Its short length means that the telescope is very stable, even on smaller mounts, with vibrations damping down very quickly. The external design can also be considered a real gem, boasting an elegant design of the highest calibre.
The advantages in a nutshell:
- 344X light gathering power

The AZ-EQ Avant mount: The precision-manufactured and easy-to-use AZ-EQ Avant mount offers excellent stability and precise control in azimuth and equatorial mode thanks to its two fine adjustments. A 122-tooth worm gear ensures sensitive adjustment in each axis.
Additional features:
- The mount can be operated in both parallactic and azimuth modes. When the mount is set up in parallactic mode, only one axis needs to be adjusted to keep the object in the eyepiece. The azimuth setup, on the other hand, is quick and easy.
- The two control knobs can be mounted on either side of the axes for convenient operation.
- The mount head is equipped with a 1/4" photo thread screw.
