The Skywatcher 909AZ3 telescope manufactured by the Chinese company Synta is one of the varieties of 90 mm achromatic refractors on a lightweight and durable AZ3 azimuthal mount. But first things first.

Design

The model has good potential for space and ground observations. It is suitable for visual contemplation of the planets at medium and high magnifications. First of all, this is a classic lens telescope with a lens diameter of 90 mm and a focal length of 900 mm. Its pipe is made with a length of about one metre. The focuser is rack and pinion, designed for the use of standard 1.25-inch eyepieces. The telescope is supplied with two such eyepieces, providing a magnification of 36x and 90x.

We stand well

Mounted Skywatcher 909AZ3 on a simple Azimuth mount with good stability. It implements the mechanisms of fine movements, made according to the reciprocating principle, which allows you to quickly direct the telescope to the desired point in the sky. And thanks to the introduction of a diagonal prism into the design, the model also does an excellent job of visual observations of ground objects in the correct orientation.

Powerful Tool

The device is recommended for those who are looking for an inexpensive and powerful tool for observing space. It is ideally suited as a first telescope for beginners in astronomy and for experienced hobbyists who have outgrown their debut mobile telescope. In addition, I would like to note the high quality of materials and assembly of the Skywatcher 909AZ3.
