Enhance Your Astroimaging with the Celestron Deluxe Off-Axis Guider
The Celestron Deluxe Off-Axis Guider is a superior astroimaging tool, designed to provide the most accurate guiding possible, especially for long focal length telescopes. This advanced accessory surpasses the accuracy of traditional guide scopes by utilizing a prism to capture a portion of the telescope's focal plane, ensuring that any movement in the guide star is precisely mirrored in the imaging camera. This technique effectively corrects for tracking and opto-mechanical errors, resulting in stellar astroimages with sharp, round stars.
Key Features:
- Optimized Guiding Accuracy: Offers improved guiding accuracy compared to standard guide scopes, perfect for achieving precision in long-exposure astroimages.
- Premium 12.5mm Multi-Coated Prism: The large, multi-coated prism ensures maximum reflectivity and optimal illumination to the autoguider, capturing brighter guide stars.
- Fixed-Orientation Helical Focuser: A high-quality helical focuser allows for smooth and precise autoguider focusing without altering the camera's orientation.
- Broad Camera Compatibility: The 48mm clear aperture supports full-frame cameras without vignetting. It includes adapters for seamless integration with DSLR cameras, Nightscape CCD, and other popular astroimaging cameras.
- Ideal for Schmidt-Cassegrain and EdgeHD Telescopes: Specifically designed to complement Celestron's Schmidt-Cassegrain and EdgeHD telescopes.
- Comprehensive Adapters Included: The package contains all necessary adapters, including SCT/EdgeHD, M48, and M42 (T-thread), eliminating the need for additional purchases.
- Additional Specifications: The helical focuser offers 8mm of travel. Connections include M42 T-thread, M48, SCT/EdgeHD for the telescope, M42 T-thread, and standard 1.25" for the autoguider, and M42 T-thread and M48 for the camera.
The Celestron Deluxe Off-Axis Guider is the ultimate solution for astrophotographers seeking to elevate their imaging game, ensuring precise guiding and flawless celestial captures with ease and efficiency.
