I had the telescope for about a year now. and used it a few times. this telescope is heavy and buyer must collect
buyer must pay cash on collection. i would take a good offer
I am in Manchester m40 postcode area
I am selling the telescope due to where I live as I dint really have much room in rear garden to use it.
this is a fantastic telescope with gps and Advanced coma free optics with UHTC coatings
the rrp on this telescope new is 1,595.00 and that does not include these extra I have with the telescope
I have also listed full detail of the telescope below. if you need any info please ask.please don’t select buy now if you want to make a offer
and sorry I cannot deliver this item.
Meade LX90 ACF 8″ Telescope
Advanced coma free optics with UHTC coatings, GPS and 30k objects in the onboard database makes the LX90 ACF range the most feature packed. The LX90-ACF represents the latest step in the evolution of the LX90, featuring Meade’s f/10 ADVANCED COMA-FREE OPTICS: Building from a classic RC design, Meade has created a new optical design with the same coma-free pinpoint star images and flatter field that discerning astrophotographers and most professional observatories expect. The NEW LX90-ACF with Meades Advanced Coma-Free system also reduces the astigmatism and eliminates diffractions spikes found in classical RCs.
No competing Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope can make those claims. The LX90-ACF is the perfect platform for the demanding visual observer and imaging enthusiast with telescopes available in apertures of 8 inches, 10 inches, and 12 inches.
When it comes to industry-leading optics, depth of features, and computerized operation, the LX90-ACF is the best all-around telescope value you can find.
UHTC coatings Meade UHTC is a series of exotic optical coatings precisely tuned to optimize the optical performance of your LX telescope. Image brightness is increased by nearly 15% over standard coatings. Objects such as stars, galaxies and nebulae as observed through your LX will be dramatically brighter. Even observations of the Moon and planets will benefit in increased image brightness from the full spectrum of light transmission.
GPS – LX90-ACF can do more than track satellites. It talks to them as well. Turn it on and the built-in Sony GPS sensor immediately determines your precise date, time and location. AutoAlign then uses this info to align your scope for a tour of the most spectacular sights in the universe. With all the features of the legendary LX90GPS, plus the additon of Advanced Coma-Free optics and the ability to communicate to satellites, the new LX90-ACF now has it all.
EASY ALIGN – LX90s are smart scopes that know the night sky right out of the box. Easy Align picks two alignment stars for you and places them right in your viewfinder. Just center them to fine tune your alignment and the wonders of the universe are at your fingertips.
OVERSIZED PRIMARY MIRROR – Only Meade manufactures their primary mirrors in diameters larger than their listed aperture (e.g. the diameter of the 8″ LX90s primary mirror is actually 8.25″).This additional 1/4″ yields a wider, fully illuminated field-of-view, and allows you to see the light other telescopes leave behind.
SLEW SPEED – The LX90-ACF slews (moves) from star to star at 7 degrees per second. That is more than twice as fast as the competition. This means that over the course of an evening, a Meade LX90-ACF will show you two to three times more objects.
RIGID CAST ALUMINUM FORK MOUNT – The Meade LX90-ACF’s Optical Tube Assembly is mounted on two sturdy fork arms giving you a rock solid platform for astrophotography.
LX200 – SERIES TRIPOD – The LX90-ACF comes standard with the same sturdy field tripod as the LX200-ACF series telescope.
SMART DRIVE – Meades AutoStar provides Periodic Error Correction (in polar mode). Over the course of one or more training periods your LX90-ACF will minimize guiding corrections during long exposure astrophotography.
AUTOSTAR CONTROLLER – Meades AutoStar can be updated after purchase. Download software upgrades, guided tours and timely objects like comets, satellites and new discoveries Free! Keep your AutoStar up-to-date, and your LX90-ACF will grow with you for years to come.
