Its Honders advanced catadioptric photographic optical system puts 200mm of aperture behind an f\/2 focal ratio, a combination that gathers light at a rate very few telescopes can match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt f\/2, exposures that would take a conventional f\/8 instrument an hour are done in minutes. That changes what is practical from a suburban backyard or a single night under dark sky faint outer galaxy halos, dim nebulosity and broad structure come through in sessions short enough to finish before the target sets. The 400mm focal length gives a wide field, and the optics deliver a 30mm pinpoint image circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocus is at the back end of the tube, where the focus knob falls to hand with a camera attached - no reaching over the front of the tube in the dark. Both M42 x 0.75 and M48 x 0.75 camera threads are provided, and the tube runs on DC 12V with an optional motorised focus motor for remote and automated sequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonders Advanced Catadioptric Optics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e200mm Aperture at f\/2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e400mm Focal Length\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30mm Pinpoint Image Diameter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM42 and M48 Camera Threads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Motorised Focus Motor\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkyWatcher HAC200 DX Catadioptric Astrograph\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptical Tube Assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCamera Connection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Accessory\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SkyWatcher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51395095789735,"sku":"GC39-SW200HACDX","price":3998.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4083\/0375\/files\/GC39-SW200HACDX_3.jpg?v=1790053375","url":"https:\/\/www.georges.com.au\/products\/skywatcher-hac200-dx-catadioptric-astrograph","provider":"Georges Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
