Sky-Watcher Evolux-62ED Refractor Telescope OTA – Compact, Lightweight & Astrophotography-Ready
High-Performance ED Optics in a Portable Package
The Sky-Watcher Evolux-62ED is a premium apochromatic ED doublet refractor, designed for wide-field astrophotography and high-contrast visual observations. As part of the Evolux ED series, this telescope improves on the Evostar line with upgraded optics and mechanics, offering outstanding colour correction, sharp stars, and high light transmission.
With its lightweight design and portable size, the Evolux-62ED is ideal for grab-and-go observing, imaging, and guiding.
Key Features
- 62mm Apochromatic ED Doublet Refractor: Features an optically matched lens system with one ED element for sharp, colour-accurate views.
- 400mm Focal Length (f/6.45): Fast optics for wide-field astrophotography and crisp visual observations.
- Optional 0.9x Reducer/Flattener: Converts the focal length to 360mm (f/5.8) for an even wider 5.09° field of view.
- Sky-Watcher Metallic High-Transmission Coatings™ (MHTC™): Optimises light throughput up to 99.5%, ensuring bright and high-contrast images.
- Dual-Speed 2.4” Rack & Pinion Focuser (11:1 Reduction): Provides smooth, precise focusing for both visual and astrophotographic use.
- Compression Ring Visual Adaptor (2"/50.8mm): Securely holds eyepieces and accessories without marring the barrel.
- Clamshell Ring with 45mm Dovetail Bar: Ensures secure mounting on a variety of tripods and equatorial mounts.
- Adjustable Dew Shield: Helps reduce glare and prevent lens dew buildup.
Designed for Astrophotography
The Evolux-62ED is engineered for wide-field astrophotography, offering:
- Superior ED Glass: Minimises chromatic aberration, producing sharp, pinpoint stars.
- Optional 0.9x Focal Reducer/Field Flattener: Converts the system into a four-element optical system with two ED elements, providing a flat field and corrected image circle.
- Lightweight & Compact Build: Portable for travel astrophotography and compatible with small equatorial mounts.
