Product Description
Part of Celestrons Top-of-the-Line German Equatorial mounted astronomical telescopes. -- The CGE 1400 has over three times the light gathering power of an 8 telescope making this observatory-class instrument Celestrons largest optical system in its class. This telescope is especially well suited for long exposure photography with optional CCD cameras or photographic equipment; it is a serious scientific research tool. German Equatorial mounts are recognized as being the superior choice for astrophotography because of their rock solid stability, simple balancing, and easy accessibility for attaching equipment. -- Used in the Fastar configuration for f/2 CCD imaging, the CGE 1400 can display the faint detail of a telescope twice its aperture used visually. With sophisticated software features like Hibernate function, the CGE can maintain its star alignment night after night without needing to be re-aligned, making it an ideal instrument for a permanent observatory facility. -- The CGE 1400 takes full advantage of its vast database of thousands of NGC and Abell galaxies as well as delivering a new level of detail to all your favorite deep sky objects. Turn this scope to the planets and see amazing detail on the surface of Jupiter; see Cassinis Division in the rings of Saturn, and resolve details on the surface of Mars. Even the distant Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are within your reach. -- CGE 1400 Specifications -- ** -- 14" (356mm) Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Design -- ** -- 3910mm Focal Length, f/11 -- ** -- StarBright Multi-Coating -- ** -- Computerized Equatorial Mount -- ** -- Super HD Tripod -- ** -- Fastar Compatible for f/2 CCD Imaging -- ** -- Double line, 16 character Liquid Crystal Display; 19 fiber optic backlit Computerized Hand Control -- ** -- RS-232 communication port on hand control -- ** -- Optical Tube Weight 45 lb. -- ** -- Tripod/Mount Weight 139 lb. -- CGE 1400 Accessories -- ** 2" 40mm Eyepiece (98x) -- ** -- 2" Diagona
