TheCelestron CGE Pro 1100 EdgeHD Computerised Telescope is another strong contender in Celestron’s new EdgeHD line of telescopes. This high quality optical tube assembly is mounted on the state of the art CGE PRO Computerized EQ mount . These two premier product lines are combined to deliver exceptional imaging quality and power with automated precision. Advanced Optical System EdgeHD technology was delivered to answer the call for telescope assemblies that could deliver pinpoint images even with the widest field eyepiece. Messier Catalog objects, hundreds of other equally interesting NGC, IC and Caldwell objects can be seen with amazing clarity. The optical design produces an extremely flat focal plane that allows even the largest commercial CCDs to see stars in tight focus even at the very edge of the sensor chip. TheCelestron CGE Pro 1100 EdgeHD Computerised Telescope is designed to produce images of stars that are Diffraction Limited across the entire field of view. This feat can be achieved on most of the popular astrophotography cameras. Even at the very edge of the CCD image sensor chip, EdgeHD telescopes displays stars that are less than 2 arc seconds. CGEM EdgeHD Optics CGE Pro Mount A beautiful and powerful telescope deserves an equally advanced mount to go with it. Not only is it fully computerized with a database of over 40,000 celestial objects for you to choose from, it is equipped with the All-Star Polar Alignment software and allows for Meridian tracking.
Additional Features The newly designed optics is just one part of this totally improved telescope system. Other components also play a huge part in giving you superior image quality and viewing experience. From mirror locks that reduce image shift when the scope is slewed or adjusted to FASTAR versatility for faster CCD imaging, the CGE Pro Telescope was made for astrophotographers. It also includes tube vents with micro mesh filters that allow hot air to vent out behind the primary mirror. Celestron's high quality Axiom Eyepiece included with the telescope as well. The 23mm focal length delivers a 82° Field Of View. This combination of power and wide field of view that is tough to beat. These eyepieces are optimized to deliver pinpoint images when used with flat-field telescopes.
