Frequently Asked Questions

Q:
If I get this, can I put a magnification eyepiece in front of the camera and will i have to buy anything else like an adapter to fit it to my 4se?
A:
The Neximage imager is fitted directly to the eyepiece barrel of the scope, so you are not able to put a magnification eyepiece in front of the camera.

Here is a link to the Celestron Manual for your reference:

Q:
Does the NexImage work with a Laptop? My telescope has an Altazimuth mount, is that OK with the NexImage?
A:
The NexImage would work fine on an Altizimuth mount as it simply slots into the Eyepiece. The Neximage will work on any computer running Windows XP or Vista.
Q:
Does the NexImage work with Windows Vista?
A:
Yes it does. You can find an in-depth answer to this on Celestron's site here:
