Sky-Watcher HAC125

[Lucius]

Ovaj teleskop je predstavljen u Japanu prije 2 mjeseca, ali nije ga bilo na izložbi u SAD-u ovih dana pa postoji mogućnost da je prototip, a ne gotov proizvod. Imate 4 slike na ovoj poveznici: https://twitter.com/tenmonReflexion/status/1760472472950804736
Izgleda kao mini RASA.

Jedan filter wheel taman moze da zakloni cijeli prednji opticki element

Radi se o Honders dizajnu, slično Officina stellare Veloce.
U slučaju Skywatchera, 125mm F/2 sistem u mogućnost kolimacije primarnog zrcala, vjerojatno ne može 1" senzor ići od ispred jer sumnjam da je takvo polje korigirano. Ovo je možda jeftinija opcija za neki DIY mini smart teleskop naspram Celestron Originu.
Zaključak: bolje kupiti mali refraktor

Kevin iz Sky-Watcher USA je na CN-u dao komentar na ovaj teleskop:

I tested the HAC125 three years ago. We've were asked numerous times at NEAF about this scope due to the video.
We have no intention of bringing the HAC125 to the North American market. There are actually a few reasons as well:
1) You can only use 1.25" guide cameras with it. You are not able to use popular cooled cameras such as the 533 or 2600.
2) Focus is done via a helical in the middle of the corrector. There is no way to automate it and your hand blocks light when focusing.
3) You're very limited on filters as they can only be 1.25" as they have to thread onto the front of the guide camera.
The telescope uses a very interesting optical design. I do hope the technology used in this telescope will be applied to others in the future. I would consider this a proof of concept for our ability to produce interesting reflecting type optical designs.
So while the HAC125 is very interesting it is quite limited in the modern era of imaging. I would see people getting this and being done with it a week later. But I do hope we see some of the tech used on future telescopes.

Interesantna cijev, volio bi se malo poigrati s njom.

Teleskop dobio poboljšanja:
The HAC125DX is an evolution from Sky-Watcher's original HAC125 but with more usable advantages. The 125DX features improved back focus to allow a wider range of cameras, it also allows for entire 16mm image circle to be used as well as a improved focusing system where the primary is used for focusing rather than a front helical focuser. The dew shield also features a routing path to allow for better cable management capabilities.

Sky-Watcher je na NEAFu predstavio i kameru sa 585 senzorom i najavili 533 senzor. Ne vjeruju da će krenuti u izradu novih kamera, ali ove dvije će biti pogodne baš za ovaj teleskop.
HAC će imati mogućnost i elektroničkog fokusiranja.
