• Celestron 11" aperture aplanatic Schmidt-Cassegrain produces astrograph-quality flat focal plane
• EdgeHD coma-free optics and a built-in field flattener ensures sharp focus all the way to the edge of the field
• Flexible tension clutches hold the mirror in place and reduce image shift when rotating the tube around the mount
• Cooling vents located on the rear cell allow hot air to be released from behind the primary mirror
• All EdgeHD optical tubes are Fastar compatible for imaging down to f/2 with optional accessories

Product Description
Celestron's innovative new EdgeHD telescopes are aplanatic Schmidt Cassegrain models designed to produce aberration-free images across a wide visual and photographic field of view. Celestron EdgeHD optics produce a focal plane more than three-times flatter than a standard Schmidt Cassegrain telescope. This guarantees you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today. Superior 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 High Definition optics you will be able to capture the faintest of galaxies all the way to the corner of your full frame camera chip. Coupled with Celestron's XLT coating group on every surface, EdgeHD optics gives you maximum light throughput across the widest visual and photographic spectrum. The EdgeHD tube has been redesigned with top-notch features to make sure you get ... More >>

Celestron EdgeHD 1100 CGEM Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope

Celestron EdgeHD 1100 CGEM Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope is a post from: Meade Telescopes

• 1,100mm focal length
• 135mm primary mirror
• Heavy duty 2-inch helical R&P focuser
• Fully pre-assembled tripod
• Fast-setup super-glide mount with adjusting counter weights; slow motion controls in altitude and azimuth

Product Description
The Galileo FS-135DX is the ultimate telescope in this category. It's size is only outshined by its ability to perform. The 1100mm focal length and 135mm diameter mirror delivers the performance that will keep you enthralled for a lifetime. The massive 135mm primary mirror collects 69% more light than the FS-85MOHDX model telescope, ensuring that rays of light that have traveled millions of years through the universe are soaked up by your Galileo telescope. Plus, the Galileo FS-135DX is outfitted with a huge 2" heavy duty metal focuser featuring helical rack and pinion focusing enabling the use of 2" eyepieces for enhanced light transmission, ease of viewing, and wider fields of view. If an object can be seen, the Galileo FS-135DX will show it to you! The sturdy metal tripod is pre-assembled and is equipped with metal accessory tray, and retractable rubber feet. The Galileo FS-135DX, like all Galileo telescopes is built with "The Galileo Difference... More >>
