Wipe the lens gently in a circular motion, starting from the centre and moving outward. Use a microfibre cloth for final polishing to remove any remaining streaks or smudges.\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAligning the lenses (collimation)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nRegularly check the alignment of your telescope’s optics, as misaligned telescopes affect image quality. Use a collimation tool or laser collimator to align mirrors or lenses accurately, and adjust the screws on the primary and secondary mirrors while observing a distant object until the image is sharp and centred. Contact Bintel for guidance or professional collimation if needed.\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStoring the equipment safely\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nCover the optics with dust covers when not in use to prevent dust buildup. Store your telescope in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to avoid moisture and heat damage. Use silica gel packs to control humidity and a padded case to protect your telescope from bumps and scratches during transport.\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegular maintenance checks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nInspect your telescope regularly for loose screws, cracks or dents, and address issues promptly to prevent further damage.

But we know one thing quite well - the best telescope is the one you will use most often! That’s why Celestron’s engineers created NexStar SE’s unique, single fork arm mount. It’s perfectly portable and makes for quick and easy set up. The NexStar SE disassembles into several lightweight and compact pieces, making it easy to transport, even in small vehicles. You’ll have no problem getting the NexStar SE to your favorite observing site, or setting it up quickly at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, it’s what’s inside the mount that really counts. Sturdy construction from high-quality components give the Celestron NexStar 5SE Telescope the pointing and tracking accuracy needed to observe and follow your favorite targets with push-button ease. Use the included NexStar+ hand control to locate over 40,000 celestial objects, or take a Sky Tour and let your telescope show you the best objects currently visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdvanced Features Let the Celestron NexStar 5SE Telescope Grow with You\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Celestron NexStar 5SE Telescope is compatible with all the high-tech accessories advanced users love. Provide GPS coordinates to your telescope with SkySync. If you want to explore the world of astroimaging, the 5SE is a perfect choice. Its built-in wedge allows you to track long exposures. Or, if you’re interested in imaging the Moon and planets, pair your NexStar 5SE with one of our ZWO planetary imaging cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-109442

The optical system was designed 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...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrue Astrograph Quality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMany optical designs that advertise themselves as \"astrographs\" actually only produce pinpoint stars across a curved focal plane. While this may be acceptable for some visual observing, stars will appear out of focus at the edge when used with the flat chip sensor of a digital camera.  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 guarantees you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImproved Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSuperior edge performance not only creates rounder, more pleasing stars, but actually improves the resolution and limiting magnitude when compared to telescopes of equal aperture. With Celestron’s StarBright XLT optical coatings on every surface, EdgeHD optics gives you maximum light throughput across the widest visual and photographic spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMechanical Features\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/strong\u003eIn addition to Celestron EdgeHD 11 OTA optimized optical design, the telescope tube has been redesigned to make sure you get the most from your optics each and every night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMirror clutches\u003c\/strong\u003e - Flexible tension clutches hold the mirror in place and reduce image shift when taking long exposure astro-images.

At its native f\/10, you can achieve the image scale necessary to capture the smallest of deep sky objects. Add the optional reducer lens—custom-designed for your size EdgeHD tube—and you can increase your field of view without sacrificing optical performance. A Barlow gives you added power for high-resolution planetary, lunar and solar imaging.

It offers unprecedented value in aperture, speed, field of view, and optical performance. The RASA design has a convenient external prime-focus image capture location with a flat focal plane, providing small spot sizes to the edge of a wide field.

With StarSense Explorer LT 114AZ, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you’ll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app. After aligning your phone to the telescope’s optics (a quick, 2-minute procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible.

RASA 11 Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph Telescope OTA","description":"\u003cp\u003eCapturing impressive deep-sky astroimages is easier than ever with Celestron’s Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA 11) V2, the perfect companion to today’s top DSLR or astronomical CCD cameras. This fast, wide-field f\/2.2 system allows for shorter exposure times compared to traditional f\/10 astroimaging, without sacrificing resolution. Because shorter sub-exposure times are possible, your equatorial mount won’t need to accurately track over extended periods. The short focal length also lessens equatorial tracking demands. In many cases, autoguiding will not be required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRASA 11 V2 builds on the legacy of Celestron’s Schmidt Cameras, which allowed astrophotographers to produce images with much shorter exposure times on film in the 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, with CCD sensor sizes as large as film or larger, the RASA 11 V2 offers a 43.3mm optimized image circle to capture pinpoint stars on the largest imaging chips. Optical performance for huge sensors with diagonals of up to 52mm wide is still excellent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombine this large image circle with a focal length of just 620mm and you have an instrument suitable for wide-field imaging, creating huge mosaics of the night sky, surveying, and even comet hunting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptical Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/strong\u003eThe RASA 11 V2 features optics with 4-element rare-earth glass for images free of false color and aberrations like coma and field curvature. The optical quality and spot size across the entire image circle are unprecedented for an astrograph in this price range—or even that of a much more expensive instrument. The design also provides minimal vignetting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/strong\u003eRASA 11 V2 utilizes the Ultra-Stable Focus System (USFS). At the heart of this system is a precision linear ball bearing. The bearing serves to minimize focus shift (unwanted lateral motion of the primary mirror during focusing which causes shifting of the image) and mirror flop (movement of the primary mirror when the telescope is pointing to different positions in the sky). The USFS is also compatible with the optional Celestron Focus Motor (#94155-A). The integrated 12V DC MagLev fan reduces cooldown time and provides optimal airflow through the dust filtered optical tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered as a complete astroimaging system, every component of the RASA 11 V2 is optimized for peak performance with DSLR and astronomical CCD cameras. Down to the thickness of the glass used in the included fully-multicoated optical window or optional imaging filter, every component of the system has been taken into careful consideration to work together seamlessly. The Dovetail CGE bars on the top of the optical tube provides a connection for use of optional accessories like a guidescope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable id=\"product-specs-list\" class=\"table-open\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOPTICAL TUBE INFO:\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody id=\"spec-block-1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAperture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e279mm (11\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e620mm (24.4\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ef\/2.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCentral obstruction diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e114mm (4.48\") (41% of aperture diameter)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight Gathering Power (Compared to human eye)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1588x\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution (Rayleigh)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.49 arc seconds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution (Dawes)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.41 arc seconds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImage Circle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43.3mm (1.7\") Ø , 4.0°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUseable field\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e52mm (2.04\") Ø , 4.8° only minimal performance loss at edge of FOV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWavelength range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400 - 700 nm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpot size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt; 4.4 μm RMS across FOV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Coatings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStarBright XLT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOff-axis Illumination\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83% at 21mm (.82\") off-axis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Window\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68mm (2.67\") Ø\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack focus with included camera adapter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55mm (2.16\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack focus from top of threaded collar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e72.8mm (2.86\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Tube Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e838.2mm (33\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Tube Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e330.2mm (13\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUltra-Stable Focus System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinderscope\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Tube Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 lbs (19.5 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOther Features\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVentilation fan, dual dovetail mounting bars\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded items\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42mm (1.65\") T-thread camera adapter | 48mm (1.89\") camera adapter | Dust cover | Fan battery pack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDovetail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCGE Dovetail Bar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Celestron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42045244244037,"sku":"91076","price":7749.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/6673\/1845\/files\/Untitleddesign_2_f0b1cda4-8c5b-4cad-bbae-6c9cb6718bf7.jpg?v=1739937763"},{"product_id":"starsense-explorer-dx-5-sct","title":"Celestron StarSense Explorer DX5 \" SCT Telescope","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eCelestron has reinvented the manual telescope with StarSense Explorer DX 5 —the first telescope that uses your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real time.

With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you’ll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app. After aligning your phone to the telescope’s optics (a quick, 2-minute procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible. Make your selection and arrows appear onscreen, guiding you as you to move the telescope.

The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system.

StarSense Explorer 8 Inch Dobsonian Telescope","description":"\u003cp\u003eCelestron has reinvented the Dobsonian telescope with StarSense Explorer—the first Dobsonian that uses your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real-time. This large-aperture Celestron StarSense Explorer is ideal for serious beginners, thanks to the app's user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. It's like having your own personal tour guide of the night sky. The large aperture will ensure that you won’t outgrow the telescope as you continue on in your astronomical adventures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDock, Launch, Explore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeave complicated star charts, imprecise planetarium apps, and computerized mounts behind. With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you'll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter aligning your phone to the telescope's optics (a quick and easy procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible. Make your selection and arrows appear on-screen, guiding you as you move the telescope. When the object is ready to view in the eyepiece, the bullseye turns green. As you observe, listen to hundreds of audio descriptions and view detailed information about thousands of objects within the app’s robust database.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Quality Altazimuth Base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ultra-stable Dobsonian base provides a sturdy foundation for StarSense Explorer. It features large diameter altitude bearings with variable tensioning, Teflon azimuth bearings, and braces on the side panels for extra stability (unlike most 8” Dobsonian bases). The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, you'll be able to easily follow them with minor adjustments to the telescope’s position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDazzling Views with High-Quality Optics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a large 8\" Newtonian reflector optical tube, this telescope has enough light-gathering ability to bring out impressive detail in celestial objects while remaining remarkably portable. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiter's four Galilean moons, its cloud bands and Great Red Spot, the rings of Saturn, the gaseous glow of the Orion Nebula, dust lanes in the Lagoon Nebula, and our neighbor galaxy, Andromeda. Compared to the StarSense Explorer DX 130 AZ, the 8\" Dobsonian has 240+% more light gathering area, providing better views of faint objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll mirror surfaces are coated with our XLT optical coatings to visibly increase contrast and light throughput for brighter views. With XLT, you'll be able to discern subtle details while viewing the Moon and planets, as well as faint galaxies and nebulae. The mirrors are made of low-expansion optical glass, which helps ensure the best images under changing environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis telescope also comes with a high-quality 2” Crayford focuser. The Crayford design provides precise and smooth movements without focus shifting. It also includes a 2” to 1.25” adapter and a 2” extension tube, so you can use virtually any 1.25” or 2” telescope eyepiece with your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian. The focuser also features a thumbscrew so you can lock in the sharpest focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for the City or Dark Sky Sites\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven if you live in a light-polluted city location, the Celestron StarSense Explorer 8” Dobsonian is advanced enough to easily pick out Jupiter, Saturn, open star clusters like the Pleiades, double stars like Alberio, the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, and more of the best and brightest celestial objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut if you can take the telescope to an even slightly darker location, more objects will become visible.

Newtonian reflector telescopes are among the most cost effective design on the market, reaching much larger apertures than an equivalently priced refractor. The large aperture will help resolve faint, extended objects like nebulae and galaxies, whilst the 650mm focal length will reveal fine details of lunar craters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 130\/650 Photo Reflector is equipped with an excellent Crayford dual speed focuser allowing fast, coarse regulation followed by a precise 10:1 reduction adjustment knob to reach the optimal focus. A 3 element 28mm LET eyepiece is provided, allowing 23x magnification and a 56° apparent field of view with 20mm of eye relief. The aluminised primary mirror is aspheric (parabolic profile) offering an optical system free from spherical aberration. The secondary mirror is thin to allow fast cooling and it is held by extra thin spider supports for minimal diffraction spike effects on bright stars and increased contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn The Box:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkyWatcher Black Diamond 130\/650 Photo Reflector OTA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28mm LET Eyepiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6×30 Finder Scope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130mm Tube Rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDovetail Bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"318\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"127\"\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"191\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\" width=\"127\"\u003eOptical Design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"191\"\u003eNewtonian (Parabolic)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eDiameter\/Aperure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e130mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e650mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eFocal Ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ef\/5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eFinder Scope\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6x30mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eEyepiece\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLET 28mm 2\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"21\"\u003eFocuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\" Crayford 10:1 Dual Speed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"TSA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42045273735237,"sku":"SW13065AP-OTA","price":599.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/6673\/1845\/files\/Skywatcher130BDOTA.jpg?v=1739573303"},{"product_id":"celestron-c8-a-xlt-ota-cge","title":"Celestron C8-A XLT OTA (CGE)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Celestron C8-A is the direct (but much improved) descendent of Celestron’s revolutionary C8 that transformed the hobby of astronomy when it was unveiled in 1970.

From design to manufacture, our goal with the DeltaRho 350 was centered around creating a game-changing wide-field telescope. The DeltaRho 350 is a Cassegrain optical design which means the imaging train is secured at the back of the telescope and does not block the light path compared to prime focus designs, which severely limit users’ ability to operate with filterwheels or large cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DeltaRho 350 is an incredible breakthrough in telescope technology and ease of use. Operating at f\/3 and 1050 mm focal length, the DeltaRho is a wide-field telescope that is sure to revolutionize your astrophotography!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, the DeltaRho 350 provides a perfectly flat field so your astrophotographs will have stunning clarity from corner to corner of the image without field curvature degrading the photos. Offering the simplicity of single-mirror collimation, the stray light control of advanced baffles, structural performance created through finite element analysis (FEA), and decades of telescope design experience, the DeltaRho 350 is an exceptional telescope. DeltaRho 350 users can experience pinpoint stars edge-to-edge and a 170 x 170 arcminute field of view when using large 16803\/4040 size camera sensors. This field of view is nearly 3 times as large as our CDK14! When equipment fades into the background and simply performs, the astrophotography experience becomes even more fun and rewarding!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOptical System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" width=\"551\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol width=\"232\"\u003e \u003ccol width=\"319\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" width=\"232\" height=\"21\"\u003eOptical Design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" width=\"319\"\u003eCorrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" height=\"21\"\u003eAperture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e350 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" height=\"21\"\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e1050 mm (41.34 in.)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" height=\"21\"\u003eFocal ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl66\"\u003ef\u003cspan class=\"font5\"\u003e\/3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSecondary Mirror\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" width=\"551\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol width=\"232\"\u003e \u003ccol width=\"319\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" width=\"232\" height=\"21\"\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" width=\"319\"\u003e7.48 in.

It eliminates the trouble of calculating the back focus distance of the flattener and connecting various accessories to achieve that distance. You can just connect any possible accessories you need. As long as the target is focused, the whole optical system is perfect for imaging. This makes the whole setting up process much more convenient, and saves you time, allowing you to pay more attention to the image shooting itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF65 APO is also a nice choice for your visual observation. It fits diagonals as well as various eyepieces and can achieve a perfect focus, and can even be used to observe planets with a super-high magnification eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole design of the telescope is compact and lightweight. The OTA weighs only 2kg, and the full package with tube rings and other accessories weighs 2.8kg. It has an aperture of 65mm. The focal ratio is f\/6.4 and the focal length is 416mm. Instead of the quadruplet structure of the other ZWO FF APO Refractors, the FF65 APO is a quintuplet, with two ed Glass elements that offer excellent control of Chromatic and other aberrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF65 APO supports the full-frame imaging circle and has a fine spot diagram with tiny distortions of the peripheral stars. The 2.5\" rigid focuser comes with a new-type 360°rotator with scales and a finder base.  M68, M54, and M48 camera adapters are also attached, and the M48 adapter has a 2” female thread for installing filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZWO FF65 APO  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain Features \u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuintuplet air-spaced APO design  -

It eliminates the trouble of calculating the back focus distance of the flattener and connecting various accessories to achieve that distance. You can just connect any possible accessories you need. As long as the target is focused, the whole optical system is perfect for imaging. This makes the whole setting up process much more convenient, and saves you time, allowing you to pay more attention to the image shooting itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF80 APO is also a nice choice for your visual observation. It fits diagonals as well as various eyepieces and can achieve a perfect focus, and can even be used to observe planets with a super-high magnification eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole design of the telescope is compact and lightweight. The OTA weighs only 3.9kg, and the full package with tube rings and other accessories weighs 4.7kg. It has an aperture of 80mm. The focal ratio is f\/7.5 and the focal length is 600mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF80 APO adopts a 3+1 quadruplet lens structure which contains two pieces of ED glass that can effectively reduce chromatic aberration and enhance clarity and sharpness. It supports the full-frame imaging circle and has a fine spot diagram with tiny distortions of the peripheral stars. The 3\"  rigid focuser comes with a new-type 360°rotator with scales and a finder base. M76, M68, M54, and M48 camera adapters are also attached, and the M48 adapter has a 2” female thread for installing filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZWO FF80 APO

The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system.

This 2-in-1 accessory was made with the StarSense Explorer Dobs in mind, it has a red flashlight PLUS a USB power bank for charging mobile devices in the field. Connect the PowerTank Glow 5000 to the two posts at the front of the StarSense Explorer dock with the included bands so it is held in a convenient location for charging your smartphone while in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve the sharpest views faster, we recommend pairing the StarSense Explorer 12” Dobsonian with the USB Cooling Fan for Dobsonian Telescopes (sold separately). The fan cools the primary mirror to the ambient outdoor temperature faster, leaving you more time to observe.

The tabletop base is compact, lightweight, and easy to transport, making it perfect for travel. The base’s low profile makes accessing the eyepiece easier for some observers (especially children). You can also place the base on a stable platform, like a table or hood of a car, to raise it to a comfortable viewing height. Consider adding the optional tripod for even more viewing options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTeflon bearings provide smooth motion in both altitude and azimuth. The integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis to ensure the smoothest motion, even with slight imbalances. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, you'll be able to follow them easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe optical tube connects to the base via a tube cradle. It’s easy to adjust the tube’s position in the cradle so the focuser is in the most ergonomic viewing position.
