Celestron AVX 8 "N Telescope

Its diameter of 200mm is a guarantee of luminosity and clarity in the observations, especially in the deep sky. This diameter and the f / 5 focal ratio allows a large field of view . The parabolic primary mirror minimizes spherical aberration, this fact contributes to a higher image quality .

It allows you to take photographs crossing the meridian without having to reverse the position of the axis of ascension, so that you can take photos without interruption in the best area of the night sky.

The improved motor and the larger tripod mounting base improves the stability of the set, when working with a heavy system. The gears with integer ratios and the programmable function of Permanent Correction of Periodic Error allow to eliminate the systematic errors present in the crowns and bisenfín.

This computerized Newtonian telescope is a guarantee for deep sky observation, it will be able to perfectly contemplate constellations, galaxies and nebulae

Characteristics:

• 8 ”(200mm) diameter af / 5 Newton optical design ensures excellent and wide visual fields.
• The parabolic primary mirror minimizes spherical aberration to produce a higher quality image.
• Gears with integer ratios and the programmable function of Permanent Correction of Periodic Error allow to eliminate the systematic errors present in the crowns and bisenphin.
• New motors that offer improved tracking and provide more power to manage overweight resulting from a poor balance of the frame.
• Updated industrial design to offer greater stiffness, less flex and improved aesthetics.
