Wonderful astro photos with a professional telescope
 
This Cassegrain telescope was created to make better, more beautiful astro photos. Pictures have more contrast and a sharper field of view right up to the edge. It’s no surprise that professional astronomers almost exclusively use this telescope design. Now this technology is affordable for amateurs too. Can you imagine if you too could produce astro photos to a professional standard?
 
Primary mirror with 94% reflection for brighter images than a standard telescope.
8 light baffles for more contrast and sharper images.
Quartz mirror: better imaging whilst the telescope is cooling down. Focus remains stable even over a long evening of photography.
Crayford focuser with 2” and 1.25” adapters: no mirror shift and greater back focus. For astrophotography: simply attach your SLR camera using the 50mm and 25mm extension connectors supplied.
Full illumination with APS-C sensors or sensors with up to 30mm diameter
 
Who is this telescope suitable for?
A Cassegrain telescope is a system for more beautiful astro photos that you can be proud of. Many telescope designs are supposed to do everything from photos to visual observations. But that’s not entirely correct: everyone knows that there is no such thing as an expert on everything. For this reason, this telescope has been created specifically with astrophotographers in mind. We don’t want an average telescope for average photos, but instead a capable tool for astrophotography. For this it is perfect - it will produce first-class images of the night sky for you.
 
Full illumination for most sensors
The Omegon Cassegrain telescope is a master photographer of the night sky. Attach cameras with sensors up to 30mm diameter and benefit from illumination without vignetting.
Quartz primary mirror with 94% reflection
94% enhanced coating: because every percentage point counts where brighter pictures with more contrast are concerned. This mirror is a strong contender as it offers 6% more reflection than the standard variation built into most telescopes.
You can look forward straight away to brighter images and faint deep-sky objects.
 
Crayford: more than enough focus
Attach any accessory to your telescope and don't worry about focus. With most cameras it’s no problem to get sharp images; the reason for this is the long back focus. You can also use a reducer or even binoculars.
 
8 lens hoods
The 8 lens hoods ensure more contrast for sharper images in which you can see more detail.
