SkyWatcher Mercury-707 (70/700) refractor on AZ2 with 6x24 finderscope, 25mm (28x) and 10mm (70x) Barium eyepieces

The SkyWatcher 70/700 telescope on AZ2 mount has a compact size, easy to use, and the scope provides good image quality. With AZ2 mount the objects can be find easily even for kids. The spirit of the telescope, the lenses already has the construction of larger refractors. The Fraunhofer type air spaced achromatic objective gives excellent image quality, the image is clear and sharp. The system is very lightweight so it is very suitable for observing brighter deep-sky objects. All glass-air surfaces of the optic have fully multi coatings to ensure maximum image contrast and light transmission.

You can see small details on the Moon, on the planets (of course, the Saturn's ring looks nice), magnification can be increased (up to about 120x) without the image becoming dim. Beside the Moon, you can see Jovian Galilei-moons and Saturn's giant moon Titan. Beside bright objects some deep-sky objects cane be observed well.

The package contains two Barium eyepieces (10 and 25mm), giving magnifications of 28x and 70x, but additional standard eyepieces can be used for the entire recommended zoom range up to about 14-140x. An accessory 90 degree star diagonal makes observing with the telescope convenient. The 31.7 mm standard size focuser has T2 thread.

Pros

-Könnyű, kicsi, gyorsan fel lehet állítani, egyszerű kezelni, beállítani -Van hozzá Zenit tükör

Cons

-A hozzá kapott barlow lencse szerintem lehetne jobb is, ahogy az okkulároknál is - a kereső távcsővet nehezen lehet beállítani. Ahogy állítok rajta, elmozdul a tubus,hiába van lefixálva.

Summary

Gyerekeknek, kezdő csillagászoknak tényleg tökéletes. Kis helyen is elfér, könnyen át lehet helyezni bárhová. Sajnos mifelénk nagyon gyorsan változik az ég este,arra viszont nagyon jó, hogy gyorsan elővegyem, vagy össze szerelve tároljam

Pros

Kiváló ár értek arány. Vizuális megfigyelés esetén én színhibát sosem vettem észre. Harmatsapkája kiválóan végzi a dolgát, és a becsillanásoktól is véd. T2 menetének hála primer fókuszos fotózásra is alkalmas. A mechanika stabilan tartja, egy DSLR súlya sem zavarja meg. Az alt tengely finommozgató csavarral van ellátva, de az azimuth tengely és a fókuszírozó is finoman jár. Hihetetlenül könnyű, és kézre áll vinni.

Cons

A kereső távcső a használhatóság határait súrolja, de szerencsére nincs is rá szükség, a legkisebb nagyításon meg lehet találni a célt. A mechanika egyik csavarjának menete nálam gyárilag meg volt szakadva. Gondolom kicserélték volna garanciálisan ha elviszem, de tekintve hogy filléres tétel, én pedig egy csavarbolt mellett lakok, erre nem került sor. A barlow lencse erősen színez, nem érdemes használni.

Summary

Első távcsövem volt, kb egy évig használtam mielőtt nagyobbra váltottam. Fővárosi égről is számos látnivalót kínál. A mechanika és az optika is kiváló. A gyenge pontja a kiegészítők, de nem zavaró. További okulárokat érdemes beszerezni mellé. Gyakorlatilag a világ végére is kézben magunkkal vihetjük megerőltetés nélkül, ami számomra igen hasznos volt ISS tranzit fotózások során. Szerintem ideális választás első távcsőnek, ismerkedni az égbolttal.

Summary

Az a baj, hogy egyelőre nem tudom értékelni a távcyövet, mert két alkalommal használtuk. Annak nagyon örültem, hogy három bolygót sikerült megtalálni az égbolton, de szerintem érdemes lesz majd jobban elmélyedni ebben a tudományban, hogy tudjuk, mit lehet kihozni ebből a távcsőből. A távcső állványa lehetne stabilabb, de nekünk azért nem borult fel.
