Celestron CGX 800 HD, 8" EdgeHD Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope
4299 USD
Make your stargazing and astrophotography experiences more immersive with the CGX 800 HD, an 8" EdgeHD Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope. This advanced telescope combines Celestron's cutting-edge CGX computerized equatorial mount with the highly acclaimed EdgeHD optical system. The CGX 800 HD boasts an 8-inch aperture and is equipped with our premium StarBright XLT coatings. This combination provides over 800 times the light gathering power of the naked eye, making it the most portable and lightest telescope in its class. The EdgeHD is an aplanatic, flat field Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope designed to produce aberration-free images across a wide visual and photographic field of view. Its optical system is engineered to reduce more than just off-axis star coma; it also provides an astrograph-quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view. Unlike many optical designs that claim to be "astrographs" but only produce pinpoint stars across a curved focal plane, EdgeHD optics produce a focal plane more than three-times flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter than competing coma-free designs. This ensures visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today. The telescope tube has been redesigned to maximize your optical experience every night. It features mirror clutches with flexible tension that hold the mirror in place and reduce image shift during long exposure astro-images. The tube also includes cooling vents on the rear cell that allow hot air to be released from behind the primary mirror. Each vent has an integrated 95-micron micromesh filter, ensuring warm air is let out without letting dust in. The CGX 800 HD is Fastar-compatible, allowing the secondary mirror to be removed and replaced with a third-party lens accessory for ultra-fast f/2 wide field imaging. Each EdgeHD that ships has been tested for surface quality of each optical component, as well as with a camera and artificial star to ensure the imaging system meets our rigorous quality assurance. The CGX mount is a culmination of Celestron's years of experience in designing German Equatorial mounts. It's designed to better support your telescope for both visual and astro-imaging pursuits. The mount features a lower profile EQ head for a more compact and stable setup, a better drive system, easier polar alignment adjustments, and improved cable management. The computerized mount features include an all-new design that is sturdier and more rigid with quicker dampening time, improved motors for better slewing and tracking under heavy loads, and an internal cabling system for worry-free remote operation. The mount also includes home and limit optical sensors, internal hard stops for both axes, and brand new control software developed in conjunction with PlaneWave Instruments for professional level control operation and imaging. The improved tripod includes 2" steel legs with height index marks for quick leveling, a...

Celestron 8" f/2.0 Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph RASA Telescope, OTA Only
2199 USD
Explore the cosmos with the 8" f/2.0 Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) Telescope, a cutting-edge portable astrograph from Celestron. This state-of-the-art telescope is designed to capture breathtaking wide-field deep sky images in mere seconds, making it an ideal companion for today's advanced color astronomical CMOS cameras, compact CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras. The 8" RASA Telescope boasts a fast f/2.0 system, a patented optical design, and a lightweight build of just 17 pounds, making it an easy-to-transport tool for your astronomical adventures. Its fast focal ratio allows you to produce sharp, detailed images, often eliminating the need for an autoguider. This imaging telescope is engineered to deliver a flat field without optical aberrations, ensuring razor-sharp stars across a wide field of view. It's capable of capturing stunning deep-sky astronomical images without the challenges typically associated with longer focal length instruments, and at a fraction of the cost. The 8" RASA is the latest addition to the RASA family, offering a more portable and affordable alternative to the highly acclaimed RASA 11. Despite its smaller size, it shares many of the same innovative features as the RASA 11, including an integrated air-cooling system, internal filter mount, and sturdy CGE dovetail mounting bar. Designed purely for imaging, the 8" RASA does not accommodate traditional eyepieces as the prime focus focal plane is located at the front of the optical system. However, its F/2.0 optical system allows for shorter exposure times, capturing detail in faint objects. When paired with sensitive cameras and the right "live stacking" software, the 8" RASA can provide an almost real-time observing experience, displaying images on a computer that are brighter and more detailed than what can be seen through larger telescopes with the naked eye. The 8" RASA also introduces a new Ultra-Stable Focus System, designed to minimize lateral movement of the primary mirror when focusing, slewing, or tracking. This new design makes focusing easier, more accurate, and more stable than ever before. Unlike larger RASAs, the 8" model is optimized for color astronomical CMOS cameras, smaller CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras. It is not compatible with standard DSLR cameras. It performs best with sensors up to a 22mm diagonal, but can also work well with sensors up to 32mm diagonal. The 8" RASA's unique optical design, which is patented (US 2016/0299331 A1), consists of a Schmidt corrector, primary mirror, lens group, and optical window. The lens group contains four elements and utilizes rare-earth elements. The telescope's optics are designed to perform over a wider spectral range, from 390-800nm, allowing more of the light emitted from the astronomical object to be sharply focused in the image. Celestron's 8" RASA Telescope is a powerful tool for any astroimager, offering superior optical performance, field illumination, and a unique design that sets it...
