The Omegon 126/920 EQ-3 telescope is exactly the right telescope for those first steps into the starry sky. With an already high light-gathering capacity, it's easy to embark on excursions into the world of deep-sky objects. Whether it's Saturn with its ring system or the ring nebula 2,300 light-years away with its delicate smoke ring, with the Omegon 126/920 this and much more is possible!
The EQ-3 mount is significantly more stable than the smaller EQ-2 mount. This makes the optics less susceptible to vibration and shock. The fairly long tube holds up better and is guaranteed to increase the joy of watching.
optics 126/920
The 126mm aperture actually offers approximately 22% more light gathering capacity than the smaller 114/900mm model. Compared to the naked eye, the optics collect 320 times more light. These data show that much is possible with this size of telescope.
The highest magnification is not always important when observing, but under good conditions, suitable eyepieces can be used to magnify up to a maximum of 250x. The resolution power and the possibility of enlargement are enough to be able to recognize the first details on some planets. The tube has a 1.25" focuser that can fit all standard eyepieces.
And if you then look outside the solar system, numerous objects like star clusters, hydrogen nebulae, and even some galaxies will be open to you.
Would you also like to take photos? Here you can also dare to take the first steps, because with a simple digital camera and an optional camera adapter you can take attractive photos of the moon.
The Omegon N126/920 Newtonian Telescope is easy to adjust. This is important, because with a good adjustment the telescope will give you its
Show full performance images. There are adjusting screws on the primary and secondary mirrors for this purpose.
The advantages at a glance:
126mm aperture lens
Red dot finder to easily find celestial objects
stable secondary mirror struts
1.25" focuser for all commercially available 1.25" eyepieces and filters
Secondary and primary mirror adjustment screws
Tube weight 3.4 kg / outside diameter tube 168 mm
The EQ-3 mount: This equatorial mount already offers the possibility to align the optics exactly with Polaris. The correct geographic latitude or polar height can be set for each observing location. With fine movements on the right ascension and declination axis, objects can be sensitively adjusted, tracked and held in the field of view. A counterweight ensures that the optics are precisely balanced.
The EQ-3 mount provides a solid foundation for most small to medium sized optics and is well suited for beautiful walks in the night sky. The tripod is extendable, a shelf offers space for eyepieces and other accessories.
It not only depends on which telescope you buy, but also where. Our additional services:
With each telescope we deliver an issue of the exciting "Stars and Space" astronomy magazines.
We are a leading retailer of telescopes and we know the equipment well. Therefore, our service is also available to you after purchase if you have problems with the structure or function.
We enclose the 80-page Teleskop-ABC beginner's manual with each telescope.

Read the practical test: What you can observe and photograph with the Omegon 130/920 Newtonian telescope. here is the report
The 130mm aperture is now standard among beginner Newtonian telescopes, as they are barely more expensive than 114mm devices, but collect much more light. Unlike many other 130mm spotting scopes on the market, this spotting scope is already equipped with a more powerful EQ-3 mount instead of an EQ-2 mount. As a result, camera shake when observing is significantly reduced.
For deep sky observations we recommend an even larger aperture and therefore the Omegon 150/750 EQ-3.
