Advanced Deep Space Imaging Bundle

The Advanced Deep Sky Imaging Bundle is an observatory-class platform designed to capture faint galaxies, planetary nebulae, and intricate emission structures at long focal lengths—night after night, with repeatable precision.

At its heart, the Celestron CGX-L German Equatorial Mount provides robust mechanics, precision tracking, and a high payload capacity that comfortably supports the Celestron 11" EdgeHD Optical Tube Assembly (OTA). This pairing delivers the reach and light-gathering power needed for targets too small for widefield systems, while EdgeHD optics ensure pinpoint stars across a flat field.

Imaging performance is powered by the ZWO ASI6200MM-P25, a cooled full-frame monochrome astrophotography camera featuring the Sony IMX455 BSI sensor with 61.2 MP resolution, 91% peak quantum efficiency, 16-bit ADC, 51,400e⁻ full well depth, and ultra-low read noise. Zero amp glow and two-stage TEC cooling ensure clean, detailed exposures.

Supporting optics include the ZWO OAG-L Off-Axis Guider for stable, flexure-free guiding, and the ZWO ASI174MM Mini guide camera, renowned for its large sensor and high sensitivity, ensuring accurate tracking even on faint guide stars.

Spectral control is handled by the Optolong 2" Filter Set, consisting of LRGB filters (7 nm) and narrowband filters: H-Alpha (7 nm), SII (6.5 nm), OIII (6.5 nm). Combined with the ZWO 7-Position 2" Electronic Filter Wheel, this provides flexible, automated filter management for broadband and narrowband astrophotography.

Automation and control are streamlined by the ZWO ASIAIR Plus (256GB), unifying polar alignment, plate solving, guiding, filter sequencing, and capture automation in one compact wireless unit. Paired with the ZWO EAF Pro (2025), the system maintains razor-sharp focus through changing temperatures and seeing conditions.

This is a complete deep-sky astrophotography solution, combining observatory-class stability, reference-grade spectral control, and next-generation imaging hardware for advanced imagers who demand reliability, precision, and scientific-grade results.
