Celestron EDGE HD 800 (203/2032 SCT) OTA

The EdgeHD optics are three times flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain in the image field plane. The stars are imaged diffraction-limited on the entire chip of a Nikon D3 or Canon 5D!

In addition to the new optics, the mechanics and tube have also been completely redesigned. The innovations include:

Mirror locks hold the main mirror in any focus position without exerting pressure on the optical elements. The image always remains stable on the chip, even with long exposure times.

Ventilation openings behind the main mirror ensure a rapid exchange of air, so that the optics cool down unrivaled quickly. Thanks to an air filter system, no dust gets into the tube.

HyperStar compatible - You can remove the secondary mirror on all EdgeHD tubes and replace it with the optional HyperStar optics. The result: Your standard Celestron EdgeHD telescope becomes a digital Schmidt design for your CCD or DSLR camera for photography in the primary focus at f / 2 (C8, C11) and f / 1.9 (C14).

Axiom eyepieces - The Edge HD 8 comes with an Axiom eyepiece from Celestron. With a 40mm focal length, you get an impressive combination of magnification and field of view.
