This large-aperture reflecting telescope offers excellent light-gathering power. The R200SS optical tube is a long-established, highly regarded model, prized for its lightweight design and fast f/4 focal ratio despite its large aperture. The deluxe SXD2WL equatorial mount features automatic Go-To slewing to celestial objects with intuitive smartphone control.
The R200SS, a popular and long-selling model, is a short-focal-length optical tube with a 200 mm aperture and an 800 mm focal length. While excellent for visual observation, it also excels as a high-speed astrograph for prime-focus photography when paired with an optional "Corrector PH," taking full advantage of its bright f/4 focal ratio. A dedicated extender lens (sold separately) is also available to increase the focal length.
This high-spec equatorial mount has been meticulously engineered from start to finish—from the careful selection of materials and well-thought-out placement of bearings to the precise cutting and machining of each part—all to maximize its performance as an equatorial mount.
The "Wireless Unit" is included as standard, allowing you to control your equatorial mount with your smartphone or tablet. By installing a free dedicated smartphone app "STAR BOOK Wireless" on your device, you can use it as a controller.
The "STAR BOOK Wireless" smartphone app inherits the highly acclaimed interface of the STAR BOOK TEN controller, renowned for its ease of use. Simply view the star chart displayed on your screen, tap the celestial object you want to observe, and the mount will automatically slew to it and begin tracking. Following the intuitive display design of the STAR BOOK TEN, the app is easy for anyone to use without difficulty.
