Brand-New SchmidtCassegrain+Equatorial Mount [Meade 8″ LX200+Celestron AVX]

 

 

 

 

 

Celestron Dealers advised me to set price at 70%-80%.  

Thus I am selling it for  around 1,960 plus shipping cost to you!

I am not in a hurry to sale (this month or next year); and I am not interested in not-following the advice from the Celestron dealers!

* Meade LX200 is still one of the best Telescopes for Photography.

* Celestron Advanced VX is still the most portable equatorial mount and the best for photography.

* Astrozap Dewshield is the best accessory for safely warming the telescope.

* Meade 5000 26mm Plossl

* Battery Tracer 8Ah 96Wh for Long Duration

* I can enclosed original receipt.  Original Contact of Celestron Dealer.

Engineered from the ground up with astroimaging in mind, the new Advanced VX series from Celestron sets a new standard in mid-level telescopes. Advanced VX provides you with many of the features found on Celestrons most sophisticated German equatorial mounts, at an extremely affordable price.

The new Advanced VX mount was specifically designed to provide optimum imaging performance for smaller telescopes. Now your smaller telescope can take advantage of All-Star Polar Alignment and autoguider support. Youll be able to track through long exposures using permanently programmable periodic error correction. Image across the meridian without doing a meridian flip, so you can seamlessly image the best part of night sky. Advanced VX features significantly larger base castings than our previous design, improving stability under heavier loads. Improved motors offer more torque and can handle slight load imbalances with ease.

Experienced imagers will love taking this portable mount to a dark sky site, with all the performance of their larger observatory mount. Or, if youre new to imaging, this mount will help you get started with the hobby and keep up with your needs for years to come.
