f/3.3 Focal Reducer & Field Flattener for CCD Imaging

Sorry, no Image Available f/3.3 Focal Reducer & Field Flattener for CCD Imaging Widens Fields Improves Color Correction Shortens Exposures Only for CCD Imaging For All Meade LX-Series SCTs For 5-11 Celestron SCTs CCD Imaging for Telescopes Meade's #07567 f/3.3 CCD Focal Reducer/Field Flattener converts f/10.0 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes to fast f/3.3 system and a f/6.3 aperture scope becomes an astoundingly fast f/2.0!  Ritchey-Chrétien f/8.0 systems convert to f/2.64 effective apertures.  The device yields wider fields for imaging deep space objects and better color correction and edge resolutionas well as effectively reducing exposure times by as much as 80%.The Meade f/3.3 CCD Focal Reducer/Field Flattener attaches to the rear cell of Meade LX-Series Schmidt-Cassegrains RCX400 Ritchey-Chrétiens and Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrains with apertures between 5.0-14.0.  Your CCD camera attaches directly to the reducer using the supplied T-threads due to the reducer's very minimal back focus.  This is a concern; even adding a color filter wheel between reducer and camera usually adds excessive distance to retain reaching focus. The variable T-adapter included with this device allows the choice of f/3.0 or f/5.0 focal ratios with f/10.0 Schmidt-Cassegrains f/1.9 or f/3.2 focal ratios with f/6.3 systems or f/2.4 or f/4.0 focal ratios with f/8.0 Ritchey-Chrétien designs.

Deep Sky Imager PRO w/ Autostar Suite Software & RGB Filter Set

Sorry, no Image Available Deep Sky Imager PRO (& AutoStar Suite Software) with RGB Filter Set for All Meade Telescopes with Autostar II or #497 Autostar Computer Controllers CCD Imaging for Telescopes Meade has improved upon the original Deep Sky Imager with this Deep Sky Imager PRO version.  Using the software package included you'll be able to hook up your telescope to your PC direct your scope with a single mouse click and watch the confluence of computerized star charts with live electronic imagery.  But with this PRO version sensitivity has been increased 2.3 times and resolution is a whopping 4 times greater than the original.  This version is the more economical kit which includes the RGB filter set a valuable addition which will bring vibrant color to your images.Attaching the imager is as simple as inserting an eyepiece and this can be used (without incorporating the software package) on any telescope which uses 1.25 eyepieces.The Autostar Suite software package contains every imaginable capacity for both guiding your scope electronically and documenting what you're seeing with stunning accuracy. You'll be able to control your scope remotely over the internet!To utilize the Autostar Suite software you'll need any Meade telescope with either the Autostar II or #497 Autostar computerized controllers. This includes the LX200GPS line ETX-90 ETX-105 & ETX-125 telescopes as well as the LX90 series. You'll also need a USB port at least 98 MB of RAM space upon your computer a CD-ROM drive and a Windows 98 SE ME 2000 or XP operating system.

Deep Sky Imager III Pro & AutoStar Suite Software

Sorry, no Image Available Deep Sky Imager III Pro & AutoStar Suite Software CCD Imaging for Telescopes Meade's vastly-improved Deep Sky Imager III Pro is a monochromatic CCD imaging tool that produces the most exceptional images of astronomical objects imaginable with its most stunning results delivered from those faint things which your eye can see but cannot gather color from due to their distance and brightness (or lack thereof).  If you've got an AutoStar-equipped Meade telescope and a modern computer to work with you'll be getting jaw-dropping results in no time.As the monochromatic Deep Sky III Pro each of the CCD pixels here has a deeper 'well' for light collection than a color CCD pixel-allowing longer exposures to record the faintest stuff without having nearby bright image areas saturate the imaging chip and sacrifice detail.  The Pro III goes deeper into the sky recording more detail in both black and white mode or in color by purchasing the optional #04530 filter set.The included AutoStar Suite & Envisage software package guides most any scope with an RS-232 port and has Drizzle technology with any Meade AutoStar-equipped telescope.  Drizzle technology uses the movements of two stars instead of just one to track the field during imaging eliminating the need for polar alignment or the use of field de-rotation devices.  With all telescopes the software's zooming technology makes customizing the focus (so important in CCD imaging) easier than ever.Attaching the device is as simple as inserting a 1.25 eyepiece and it can be used exclusively as an imager upon any telescope (which accepts 1.25 eyepieces) if you like.  The imager's Sony CCD sensor has fine resolution geared for long exposure success that's sure to please any amateur astronomer.
