Capable of holding 40 lbs. of payload and slewing at 5 degrees per second, you will be able to instantly point to any of the celestial objects in the database. The CGEM II contains innovative new features such as the dual-sized dovetail saddle plate, graduated markings on the tripod legs, USB 2.0 connection on hand controller for PC connection, Permanent Periodic Error Correction, dedicated auto guider port and the ability to track past the meridian. SkyAlign Ideal for beginners and advancers users alike, SkyAlign makes aligning a computerized telescope fast, easy, and accurate. Simply point at any three bright objects in the sky and the telescope aligns itself. From there, navigation and tracking is as easy as pushing a button. EdgeHD Optics Celestron’s revolutionary aplanatic EdgeHD optics reduce off-axis star coma while providing an astrograph-quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view. The result is a focal plane more than three times flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter than other competing coma-free designs, guaranteeing sharp stars across today’s largest CCD sensors.
