This scope is great for astrophotography or visual astronomy. Focal length is 2032 mm, or if you add the .7x reducer that Celestron makes, focal length then is 1470 mm.<\/p>\n

Leave a comment below using your real email and I’ll get back to you promptly. (Comment will be held for moderation if you haven’t posted before, but I’ll still see it. Your email will not be public.)<\/p>\n

1200 dollars with shipping within USA. Outside USA, you pay shipping over 100 dollars US. Will ship within two days of payment via PayPal.<\/p>\n

I bought it on Cloudy Nights, enjoyed it, but now want a bigger scope.<\/p>\n

It’s a little scratched on the outside, and has a little bit of tape gunk on the outside, but works. No cracks or scratches in optics.\u00a0Is as shown in these many photos, everything shown here comes with it except the table its all sitting on.<\/p>\n

Here are two photos I took with it. (You may do better with it, I’ve only been doing astro since August 2022. Both of these used the .7x reducer that Celestron).<\/p>\n

4 hour integration of Crescent Nebula:

A few quick pix of the Moon:

INCLUDED:
\nVisual back, #astrophotography back, visual 45 degree adapter, Celestron visual 40 mm Plosll eyepiece, visual finder scope and mounting. Includes correct Bob’s Knobs.<\/p>\n

Astromania 1.25″ Astrophotography Flip Mirror – The flip Mirror for Precise Focusing (paid 107 dollars). Great with included eyepiece for framing planetary photography when on full native focal length without a reducer.<\/p>\n

In-built Celestron dew heater ring (cost 54 dollars), attached on the front as you can see, it works. Can be powered from ASIAIR or other power. Will include (not shown) a cable to power it from an ASIAIR or other power source.<\/p>\n

Add a non-powered dew shield tube (not included, but cheap) and start on lowest power, when it’s cold enough to need it, if you live somewhere that gets dew.<\/p>\n

I’m also including a Tri-bahtinov mask to help collimation and focusing.<\/p>\n

Will be shipped with focus lock-down knobs on back locked down. Just turn them counter-clockwise to unlock, then you can use the focus know to focus, or gently pull the knobs off and attach a remote focuser.<\/p>\n
