Vai al moduloCelestron Advanced VX 8" Newton – Newtonian Telescope on Computerised Equatorial Mount
The Celestron Advanced VX 8" Newton is a 200 mm f/5 Newtonian reflector with a diffraction-limited parabolic mirror, mounted on the new computerised German equatorial Advanced VX mount. XLT optics deliver sharp images over a wide field of view, suitable for both visual observing and imaging.
The Advanced VX mount was designed for optimal astrophotography performance with small and medium telescopes. It features All-Star Polar Alignment (no need to see Polaris), an autoguider port, Permanent Periodic Error Correction (PPEC), an internal RTC clock with buffer battery (alignment data is retained at power-off), and the ability to image across the meridian without a meridian flip. The enlarged base plate improves stability under heavy loads; the upgraded motors handle slight imbalances effortlessly.
