The 11 f/10Schmidt-Cassegrain includes XLT coatings offers 33% more light gathering than a 9.25 telescope andensures little chromatic aberration. The VX mount with improved motor wasspecifically designed for optimum power and tracking performance. Thanks to theautoguider support and All-Star Polar Alignment you can choose any star listed in theNexStar hand control (included) to assist in accurately aligning yourtelescope’s mount with the North Celestial Pole.1) Celestron C11 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope Engineered from the ground upwith astroimaging in mind, the new Advanced VX series from Celestron sets a newstandard in mid-level telescopes. Advanced VX provides you with many of thefeatures found on Celestronsmost sophisticated German equatorial mounts, at an extremely affordableprice. 11″ (2800mm) f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain includes StarBright XLT coatings for better light transmission 41% more light gathering than a 9.25 telescope 9×50 optical finderscope for locating alignment stars Integer gear ratios and permanently programmable Periodic Error Correction eliminates recurring track errors from the worm gear Autoguider port for long exposure imaging New motors offer improved tracking performance & provide more power to overcome load imbalances Updated industrial design offers more rigidity, less flexure and improved aesthetics New design allows viewing or imaging across the meridian without interference from the motors housings Improved latitude range. Can be used between 7 77 degrees latitude NexStar+ hand control offers multiple language programming (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish)2)Celestron Advanced VX MountThe new Advanced VX mount was specifically designed to provide optimumimaging performance for smaller telescopes. Now your smaller telescope can takeadvantage of All-Star Polar Alignment and autoguider support. Youll be able to trackthrough long exposures using permanently programmable periodic error correction. Imageacross the meridian without doing a meridian flip, so you can seamlessly imagethe best part of night sky. Advanced VX features significantly larger basecastings than our previous design, improving stability under heavier loads.Improved motors offer more torque and can handle slight load imbalances withease.3) The Celestron StarSenseThe one-of-a-kind StarSense enables automatic alignment of yourCelestron computerised telescope. Just set up the accessory, push the Alignbutton on the hand control, and StarSense begins capturing and comparing imagesof the night sky against its internal database. In about three minutes, it’sgathered enough information to triangulate its position and align itself. Then,press the Sky Tour button: StarSense will automatically slew to all the beststars, planets, galaxies, and more currently visible in the night sky.Compatible with: NexStarSE Series, CPC, CPC DX, NexStar GT (with Aux. splitter), CGE Pro, Advanced VX,CG-5 (with Aux. splitter), CGEM, CGEM DX, CGE, NexStar SLT and LCM (with Aux.splitter) Not compatible: NexStari Series, Ultima 2000, Early generation GoTo mounts (such as Compustar) andNexStar GPS How it Works The self-alignment technology behind our award-winning SkyProdigy series is nowavailable for all of Celestron’s current computerized telescopes and backwardscompatible with many older models as well. A small digital camera takesthe place of your finderscope and attaches using one of two provided mountingbrackets. The included StarSense hand control, with a database of over 40,000celestial objects, takes the place of your NexStar hand control. The cameraautomatically captures a series of images of the sky. StarSense identifies thestars in the images, matching them to its database. Once a positive match isconfirmed, StarSense calculates the coordinates of the center of the capturedimage, thereby determining exactly where the telescope is pointed. Before StarSense, using acomputerized telescope required a lengthy alignment process of finding andcentering at least two bright stars in the telescopes eyepiece. But StarSenseautomatically aligns itself with minimal user input. Just enter your time, date,and location and let StarSense do the rest! Advanced Mount Modeling Even the most advanced telescope users will love using StarSense AutoAlign.This affordable accessory replaces the expensive software usually used foradvanced mount modeling. With built-in mount modeling,you’ll get superior pointing accuracy from horizon to horizon. When youralignment needs to be perfect, add up to 10 additional calibration stars toachieve a new level of accuracy, great for locating objects in the cameras field ofview for astroimaging.
