Product Description
The Celestron 11" EdgeHD CGX Telescope Bundle combines advanced EdgeHD optics with the powerful CGX computerized equatorial mount for serious visual astronomy and astrophotography. Its 279.4mm (11-inch) aperture and 2800mm focal length provide strong light-gathering capability and high-resolution views of the Moon, planets, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters.
The EdgeHD optical system is designed to provide a flat, coma-free field with sharp stars across a 42mm corrected image circle. This makes the telescope well suited to astrophotography with full-frame cameras. Its native f/10 optical system can also be adapted for faster imaging configurations using compatible accessories.
The included CGX equatorial mount provides a 55 lb instrument capacity, heavy-duty belt drive, computerized GoTo operation, internal cable management, and precise tracking. It also supports sidereal, lunar, and solar tracking rates, making the complete system suitable for advanced observing and imaging setups.
