Explore FirstLight 130mm f/4.6 Newtonian Telescope (OTA only)A 130mm f 4. 6 Newtonian reflector with a fast focal ratio optimized for wide field deep sky views the only reflector in the FirstLight OTA lineup and the best choice for observers who want to sweep through nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. The fast f 4. 6 focal ratio and 600mm focal length deliver wide true fields of view that refractors and Maksutov Cassegrains at the same aperture cannot match.

A 130mm f/4.6 Newtonian reflector with a fast focal ratio optimized for wide-field deep-sky views — the only reflector in the FirstLight OTA lineup and the best choice for observers who want to sweep through nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies.
The fast f/4.6 focal ratio and 600mm focal length deliver wide true fields of view that refractors and Maksutov-Cassegrains at the same aperture cannot match. A 25mm eyepiece produces 24x at a field wide enough to frame the entire Orion Nebula or Pleiades cluster in a single view. The 130mm parabolic primary mirror gathers enough light to reveal structure in galaxies, resolve individual stars in globular clusters, and show the wispy filaments of bright nebulae from a reasonably dark site.
The Newtonian design delivers all 130mm of unobstructed aperture without the chromatic aberration of achromatic refractors — stars are sharp, white points across the field. Fully multi-coated optics on the secondary mirror and included eyepiece maximize contrast. At 7 lbs, the tube is light enough for a wide range of equatorial and alt-az mounts.
Key Features
- 130mm (5.1") parabolic Newtonian reflector, fully multi-coated
- 600mm focal length, f/4.6 — wide-field deep-sky performance
- Lightweight: 7 lbs
- Includes 25mm Plossl eyepiece, red-dot finder, smartphone adapter
- Vixen-style dovetail
Ideal For
- Deep-sky observers — the fast focal ratio frames large objects like nebulae and open clusters that longer telescopes can only show in pieces
- Astrophotography beginners — f/4.6 gathers light quickly for shorter exposures on a tracking mount
- Budget-minded observers wanting aperture — 130mm of mirror collects more light than any refractor near this price
