Sky-Watcher has transformed their signature doublet telescope design and packaged it into a lightweight guide scope! These APO refractors will give you beautifully detailed and contrast-rich views of deep-sky and planetary objects, leaving you in awe of the wonders of the universe. You can easily mount it to your guide camera using convenient M42 rings on the back of the scope, and a large single-speed focus ring to achieve perfect focus. While it was initially designed for guide cameras, the EvoGuide 50DX APO Guide Scope Astrograph can also be used to shoot fast, low focal length astrophotography when used in conjunction with a focal reducer (not included), giving you spectacular wide-field images.
