About this product

Model: ev90eq2
Part Number: 10724

This 90mm (3.5") f10 achromat refractor on EQ2 German Equatorial Mount is a well-made but affordable entry into astronomy.

“Great deep-space views…. Using the 25mm eyepiece, the star Altair was sharp across 90 percent of the field of view, with only slight distortion close to the edges. Using the 10mm eyepiece we just split Epsilon Lyrae into four stars and Albireo had lovely gold and blue component stars. All our test nebulae and galaxies were easily viewed. The Dumbbell Nebula showed strong mottling and the the Andromeda Galaxy filled the view at low magnification, with its two companion galaxies also visible."

Firstly, I must say that FLO optics service is second to none. The whole process from order to receipt of delivery is effortless, efficient and expedient. A reflection of this very customer focused and professional service of a great online company.
As for the telescope it is very well made for this price bracket and the EQ2 mount is more than sturdy and functional for the OTA.
The eye pieces and x2 Barlow Lens are decent optics to begin one’s astronomical journey. The super eye pieces are achromatic and perform reasonably well. But obviously an upgrade will be in the future as this scope certainly deserves it. I’ve had a brief chance to view ,including the Blue Moon and was very impressed with the tube optics. The chromatic aberration was barely noticeable and the image was astoundingly crisp. I thoroughly recommend this Evostar 90 as an entry refractor EQ telescope.
All and I mean all my future orders will be from FLO
Wishing you all clear skies.
