Sky-Watcher 12" f/4.9 parabolické hlavné zrkadlo pre Dobson FlexTube 300P

This 305 mm parabolic primary mirror is the core optical component for a 12-inch Dobsonian telescope, delivering exceptional light grasp and resolution for deep-sky and planetary observation. With a focal length of 1500 mm and a fast f/4.9 ratio, it gathers over 1400 times more light than the naked eye, revealing faint galaxies, nebulae, and intricate lunar and planetary detail.

Advantages

The mirror features a diffraction-limited parabolic figure with a surface accuracy of 1/8 wave PV, ensuring sharp, high-contrast images across the entire field. Its borosilicate glass substrate provides excellent thermal stability, minimizing cool-down time and maintaining figure under changing temperatures. The enhanced aluminum coating with SiO2 overcoat achieves over 94% reflectivity, maximizing light throughput for brighter views. This mirror is a direct replacement or upgrade for Sky-Watcher Dobsonian FlexTube 300P (12-inch) telescopes, offering a straightforward way to restore or improve optical performance.
