Telescopes

The Prime 16-48X50mm spotting scope combines a light weight, compact design with the superior optical quality and clarity that Bushnell is known for.

• Flat field free of optical aberrations like field curvature, coma, astigmatism and chromatic aberration across an entire APS-C sensor.
• Unlike the larger RASAs that work with DSLR and large CCD cameras, the 8” model was designed with color astronomical CMOS cameras, smaller CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras in mind. The telescope does not work with standard DSLR cameras.
• NEW Ultra-Stable Focus System – six precision sealed ball bearings virtually eliminate image shift.
• Integrated air cooling system –12V DC MagLev fan reduces cooldown time and provides optimal air flow while filtering out dust.
• Internal filter mount – seamlessly accommodates a Light Pollution Imaging Filter into the optical path.
• CGE dovetail mounting rail.
• Performs over a wider spectral range than most telescopes, from 390-800 nm, so more of the light passing through the astrograph is in sharp focus.

• Increased 75 lb load capacity. Exceptional load capacity to weight ratio
• Additional Aux accessory ports and autoguider port on the Dec axis for better cable management
• Larger 144 mm diameter worm wheels to better and more accurately drive heavier loads
• Longer 270 mm dovetail saddle to better support larger optical tubes
• Massive 70 mm stainless steel tripod legs with a wider stance for improved stability under heavy loads
• New accessory tray holds three 1.25” and two 2” eyepieces with an upright stand for your smartphone or tablet
• Heavy duty, 31.5 mm stainless steel counterweight shaft to support additional counterweights
• Spring-loaded brass worm wheel and stainless steel worm gear reduce friction and provide optimum gear mesh
• Internal cabling for worry-free remote operation. Power input and lower accessory ports remain stationary while the mount slews to avoid snags
• Includes Celestron's new PWI telescope control software, co-developed by PlaneWave Instruments. Software features multi-point mount modeling for extremely precise pointing accuracy
• Adjustable EQ head position to optimize center of gravity over the tripod and fully utilize the increased 3°-65° latitude range
• Integrated handles for easy transport and portability
• All-new ergonomically designed dovetail clamping knobs

• 8” (203.2 mm) f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain includes StarBright XLT coatings for better light transmission
• 84% more light gathering than a 6” telescope.
• 6x30 optical finderscope for locating alignment stars
• Integer gear ratios and permanently programmable Periodic Error Correction eliminates recurring track errors from the worm gear.
• Autoguider port for long exposure imaging
• New motors offer improved tracking performance & provide more power to overcome load imbalances
• Updated industrial design offers more rigidity, less flexure and improved aesthetics
• New design allows viewing or imaging across the meridian without interference from the motors housings
• Improved latitude range.  Can be used between 7 – 77° latitude.
• NexStar+ hand control offers multiple language programming (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish)
