Reflector Telescope with 130mm Aperture, 650mm Focal Length and German Equatorial Mount – Gskyer EQ-130
A reflector telescope with a 130mm aperture gathers light for viewing the Moon, planets, bright galaxies, nebulae and star clusters. The Gskyer EQ-130 combines a 650mm focal length and fast f/5 optical design with a compact aluminum tube for wide-field observing.
The German equatorial mount provides manual slow-motion tracking through polar and declination axes, while the adjustable stainless-steel tripod supports different viewing positions. Three eyepieces provide 26x, 65x and 130x magnification, and the included 3x Barlow lens triples an eyepiece’s original magnification. A 6x30 finderscope, Bluetooth camera remote and smartphone support complete the kit.
