The Celestron Advanced VX 8-inch Computerised Cassegrain Telescope sets a new 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 (AVX) 8” Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope is one of the most affordable and portable 11” telescopes; perfect for astrophotographers and visual observers alike. The 8” optical tube offers 84% more light gathering ability than a 6” telescope, and its Schmidt-Cassegrain design eliminates chromatic aberration, thus making it a great choice for entry-level astroimaging
The AVX mount is designed to provide solid superior performance while featuring Celestron’s array of innovative technologies: All-Star Polar Alignment, Celestron PWI telescope control software, SkyAlign, and permanently programmable periodic error correction (PPEC).
If you’re an experienced astronomer, you’ll love taking this portable mount to dark sky sites for your adventures. If you're new to imaging, this AVX telescope has much potential to be your long term buddy (for years to come) in this hobby!
