Skywatcher Startravel 150 EQ5 Refractor Telescope
Â
The compact Sky-Watcher STARTRAVEL series are two-element, air-spaced, multi-coated objective, achromatic refractors, and are well proven performers for ‘Rich-Field’ views of star fields, clusters, nebulae, bright galaxies, planets, the Moon and, the Sun (with correct safety filtering!), as well as giving excellent terrestrial views.
These wide-field, short-tube telescopes are also highly portable. They also are popular for use as guide scopes on larger telescopes.
Â
All models excel as fixed aperture lenses for both Astrophotography and terrestrial photography.
 Â
Their “fast" focal ratios combined with today’s high-speed films make them useful for capturing lunar and solar eclipses as well as nature photographs. Tube material: Aluminium.
