October 9 2026, Paul Lindemann

The new Omegon EQ mounts: From a flexible entry-level platform to a fully equipped all-round solution. With the new EQ series, Omegon offers mounts tailored to every requirement and budget – whether for an easy introduction to the hobby or as a reliable all-rounder for visual observing and astrophotography.

Omegon EQ370
Flexible entry with future-proof options: Many beginners are not yet sure whether they want to observe manually or opt for computer control right from the start. The EQ370 solves this dilemma: It offers a stable mechanical platform at an affordable entry-level price and can be upgraded with a GoTo system at any time and at low cost.

Omegon EQ370DX
Convenient computer control at a budget price: In practice, observing often becomes frustrating because of the time-consuming search for objects. The EQ370DX combines the solid mechanics of the EQ370 with an integrated GoTo control system. This allows you to find your desired targets at the touch of a button and effortlessly make full use of your optics – all at an unbeatable price-performance ratio.

Omegon EQ570DX
The portable all-rounder with a complete feature set for ambitious amateur astronomers looking for a versatile all-in-one package: The EQ570DX supports optical tubes with apertures of up to 20 cm, remains easy to transport and offers cutting-edge technology for well under €1,000. In addition to its solid mechanics, it stands out for its highly flexible control options – either conventionally via hand controller, wirelessly via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi on a smartphone, or through USB integration into a professional astrophotography setup, including guiding.

New in the Sky: Omegon OGDO Eyepiece Series

April 17 2025, Marcus Schenk

A starry night. You’re standing at your telescope and probably thinking: “If only I could see a little more…”
More field of view, better edge sharpness, simply more detail. Does that sound familiar?

Our Omegon product team has taken this wish to heart with the new OGDO eyepiece series. And the result truly speaks for itself. Even hobby astronomers with fast telescopes will be delighted.

What makes the OGDO series so special?

Wow! That’s usually the first thought when you look through the eyepiece. With a gigantic 80-degree apparent field of view, you’ll feel like you’re diving right into the night sky. The Orion Nebula? Suddenly appears in a whole new dimension and feels almost limitless.

And the best part: the stars stay sharp. The optics are optimized even for systems with a focal ratio down to around f/4.5, when using a coma corrector. Not many eyepieces can handle that. And you’ll immediately notice the difference compared to other products in this price range.

What’s the secret behind the astonishing contrast? It lies in the Lanthanum ED glass used, made by renowned Japanese manufacturer Ohara. Just take a look at Jupiter: its delicate cloud bands and subtle color variations suddenly stand out clearly. Truly impressive. Even faint deep-sky objects become a real experience.

Do you wear glasses? No problem. With a generous 20 mm eye relief, you can finally observe comfortably without removing them. And you still enjoy the full field of view. This also applies to the short focal lengths of 4 mm and 6 mm!

Another detail we love: the waterproof and rubber-armored metal housing. Say goodbye to worries. The eyepieces can be safely stored in the included flannel pouch. The optics stay protected and always ready for action.

The right eyepiece for every observing situation

The OGDO family comes in five different focal lengths:

What more could you want? You’ll have the right eyepiece at your fingertips for any situation.
So how about taking a look into your eyepiece case right now and finding a spot for the OGDO?
