EHD11-CGEPro Celestron CGE Pro 1100 HD - 280 / 2800mm Flatfield GoTo Telescope

Celestron CGE Pro 1100 HD - 280mm aperture 2800mm focal length - corrected field of view for astrophotography - a complete telescope on powerful GoTo mount CGE Pro


Celestron EHD11-CGEPro GoTo 1100 HD 280 / 2800m

Celestron EdgeHD are aplanatic Schmidt telescopes produced for a flawless and flattened large field of view for astrophotography.

Each Celestron HD Telescope offers a comfree and fully corrected image field for astrophotography and, of course, for observation. The HD Schmidt telescopes are the latest development from Celestron, based on years of experience in building high quality Schmidt Cassegrains.



The Benefits of Celestron EdgeHD Schmidt Telescopes:

+ large and fully corrected field of view for astrophotography - flat and comic
+ unrestricted visual fitness
+ Fixation of the main mirror - prevents the mirror from shifting during the exposure
+ Main mirror ventilation for faster cooling
+ Each HD Schmidt Telescope is Fastar compatible and can be converted into a Schmidt Camera

Celestron HD Fastar Especially bright picture:

Celestron has one of the best rewards we have with the StarBright XLT Compensation. Thus, the HD telescopes offer a particularly bright and high-contrast image.

Fastar compatible:

Convert the HD telescope into a f / 2 CCD Schmidt camera with just a few clicks with the HyperStar Upgrade. The HyperStar Kit is linked in the section "Recommended Accessories".

Powerful 9x50 viewfinder:

Each HD telescope comes with a good multivergüteten 9x50 viewfinder, which makes finding objects easier.
Celestron HD Main Mirror Ventilation Innovative 2 "Clamp:

The accessories are fixed by a sturdy 2 "clamp, which is clamped evenly over the entire surface.

New elegant design:

Not only technically, but also in design Celestron sets new standards with the HD Schmidt Telescopes.


The massive CGE Pro - a large mount from Celestron:
A professional large mount from Celestron

CGE Pro - massive GoTo mount from Celestron

CGE Pro - the strongest GoTo mount from Celestron with over 40,000 fixed objects stored in the database. The mount has been completely redeveloped and offers many advantages, especially for astrophotography.

Product features:

Higher rigidity for maximum load ... the mount can be loaded with equipment up to 45kg dead weight. For example, a C-14 can also be used in astrophotography.

Innovative arrangement without Polarstern ... important for use on the road, they only need a few bright stars in the sky and not even the clear view of the Polarstern. Nevertheless, the optimal Einnordung succeeds.

Fine adjustment of pole height and azimuth without tools ... generously dimensioned grip screws allow sensitive adjustment and secure clamping without tools - even with gloves.

Usable up to 20 ° over the meridian ... for undisturbed astrophotography without interruption due to annoying turning over of the mount.

Object setting at 5 ° per second ... for quick and yet quiet setting of the target objects.

Precise Object Adjustment - Accuracy of only 5 arc minutes ... with just one simple alignment you can achieve a setting accuracy of about 5 arc minutes. Additional tools in the menu allow you to set even less than a minute, which is sufficient even for very small chips.

Accurate tracking ... the CGE Pro provides a tracking accuracy of +/- 9 "with very slow occurrence of the periodic error.Each autoguider can compensate for this error well.The error can be further reduced by electronically reducing the screw error.

Transportability ... The CGE Pro can be easily disassembled into smaller easy-to-transport parts and is therefore superior to the typical fork mount. Thus, the CGE Pro is well suited not only for observatories, but also for use on the road.
