Sky-Watcher Skymax 102mm Maksutov-Cassegrain - Large Aperture Compound-Style Reflector Telescope

Needed a long focal length scope to complement my "short" scope. Short scope is great for nebulas, etc, but too wide for closeup planetary or lunar viewing/photography. This scope at 1300 mm FL, altho not too wide in aperture, is a great scope for planetary viewing and is easy to carry around. Saturn & jupiter pics were shot with it the day (night!) it arrived! Recommended.

love it only have seen the moon at the moment because Lack of sturdy Tripod, Mount and Weather but over all a really good telescope

Ottimo telescopio perfetto anche per uso in terrestre. Potente, sufficientemente luminoso ed estremamente nitido. Ottimo telescopio, costruito interamente in metallo e con una buona dotazione di base. Compatto e non troppo pesante, è facilmente trasportabile. Gli oculari forniti a corredo sono già validi per iniziare. Il cercatore di tipo red dot funziona bene ma è di scarsa qualità. Buono il prisma raddrizzatore. Mi ha soddisfatto al 100%

The Sky-Watcher Skymax 102mm Maksutov-Cassegrain is an outstanding telescope, especially if you’re looking for sharp, detailed views in a compact and portable setup. What really impressed me is the image quality. The optics are excellent—crisp, high-contrast views of the Moon, planets, and even some brighter deep-sky objects. Jupiter’s bands, Saturn’s rings, and lunar details come through beautifully, especially when paired with a good eyepiece. The Maksutov design is a big advantage. It’s compact, easy to transport, and holds collimation very well, so you don’t have to constantly adjust it like some other telescope types. It’s a great grab-and-go option for quick observing sessions. Build quality is solid and feels premium. Everything from the tube to the focuser is well-made and reliable. It also works great on different mounts, making it a versatile choice whether you're a beginner or a more experienced user. Another plus is how user-friendly it is. Setup is straightforward, and once you’re up and running, it’s easy to use and maintain.

Tengo el mak 102 sky watcher y honestamente este tubo tiene una optica excelente a bajo y medio aumento es una chulada de equipo y a alto aumento pierde un poco de luminosidad ya que es un tubo pequeño pero aun asi es agradable ver, muy recomendable este equipo ya que es pequeño liviano y potente...
