Astrophotography Bundles

The saxon AZ-EQ6 GT Pro Mount provides the precision and stability needed for serious observing and astro imaging.

Experience our best optical performance with EdgeHD’s aplanatic, flat field Schmidt-Cassegrain optics for pinpoint stars all the way to the edge of today’s largest imaging sensors and widest eyepieces.

• 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)

The Saxon 250DS Astrophotography Newtonian Reflector Telescope - OTA is great for DSO and planetary imaging.

The saxon AZ-EQ6 GT Pro Mount provides the precision and stability needed for serious observing and astro imaging.

• 6” (150mm) f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain includes StarBright XLT coatings for better light transmission
• The most compact and portable of Celestron’s German equatorial mounts offers the same rigidity as our larger mounts with minimal flexure and an improved industrial design
• Holds a maximum instrument capacity of 30 lb
• Every feature an astroimager wants: PEC, an autoguider port, the ability to image across the meridian, and more
• Dual saddle plate is compatible with narrow CG-5 dovetails and wider CGE dovetail. Also compatible with Vixen format dovetails longer than 100mm, but not compatible with Losmandy D format plates.
• Latitude range allows the mount to perform between 7° and 77° latitude
• Accessories include a 25mm eyepiece, 1.25” star diagonal and 6x30 finderscope

The Advanced VX (AVX) sets a standard in mid-level telescopes, providing many of the features found on Celestron’s most sophisticated German equatorial mounts at an extremely affordable price.

The Advanced VX 8” Newtonian telescope is an excellent entry- to mid-level setup that can grow with you. The Newtonian optical design is excellent for visual observing and offers you the largest aperture for the price. The parabolic primary mirror minimizes spherical aberration to produce a sharper image near the edge of the field of view. The 8” Newtonian optical tube offers 78% more light gathering ability than the 6” Newtonian optical tube.

The Advanced VX mount is designed to provide superior performance for smaller telescopes while taking advantage of Celestron’s most advanced technologies: All-Star Polar Alignment, Celestron PWI telescope control software, and permanently programmable periodic error correction (PPEC).

If you’re an experienced imager, you’ll love taking this portable mount to a dark sky site and enjoying all the conveniences of a larger observatory mount. Or, if you’re new to imaging, Advanced VX will help you get started with the hobby and keep up with your needs for years to come.
