Large Telescopes >6" to 12"

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

Experience Celestron’s 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.

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.

For the serious astronomer who won't compromise on quality and useability, the saxon 12" DeepSky Dobsonian Telescope is perfect for you.

Due to the size of this item, this item is sold in three separate components, the the timber base, the tube and the primary cell with mirror. The primary cell will need to be installed into the tube and the scope collimated prior to use. 

NOTE: to protect your scope optics from dust, spiders and other pesky critters in storage, we recommend the Pegasus 12" Dust cover for the bottom of your scope. (Product Number 126687)
