Where traditional Schmidt-Cassegrains show slight distortion at the edges, the EdgeHD 800 completely corrects this: stars remain perfectly round, even on large sensors such as APS-C or full-frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a <strong>203 mm opening<\/strong> and a <strong>focal length of 2032 mm (f\/10)<\/strong> this telescope offers a balanced combination of magnification, sharpness and contrast. You can effortlessly see fine structures in nebulae and spiral arms in galaxies, while planets and the Moon come into focus razor sharp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>StarBright XLT coating<\/strong> guarantees maximum light transmission and clear contrast. Thanks to the integrated vents with microfilters, the telescope cools faster, minimizing image distortion. The EdgeHD 8 is compatible with Celestron's <strong>0.7\u00d7 reducer<\/strong>, shortening it to f\/7 - ideal for faster deep-sky photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Advanced VX mount, precision in a compact size<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Celestron Advanced VX (AVX)<\/strong> mount is made for mobile astrophotography. With a carrying capacity of 13.5 kg, it effortlessly supports the EdgeHD 800 with camera and accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The built-in <strong>GoTo control with NexStar+ hand controller<\/strong> provides access to more than 40,000 objects. Thanks to features such as <strong>All-Star Polar Alignment<\/strong> and <strong>PEC (Periodic Error Correction)<\/strong> you can align and track precisely, even in long exposures. The robust steel legs (51 mm diameter) ensure high stability and minimal vibration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mount can also <strong>far beyond the meridian<\/strong> follow so you can photograph or observe without interruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Application<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Celestron SC 203\/2032 EdgeHD 800 AVX GoTo<\/strong> is ideal for advanced observers and photographers who want top performance in a relatively portable set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What you can see with it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2726 The Cassini separation in the rings of <strong>Saturn<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2726 Cloud bands, Great Red Spot and shadow transitions on <strong>Jupiter<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2726 Ice sheets, dust storms and surface structures on <strong>Mars<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2726 Structures in nebulae such as <strong>Orion<\/strong> and <strong>Lagoon<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2726 Spiral arms of galaxies such as <strong>M51<\/strong> and <strong>M81<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2726 Compact planetary nebulae such as the <strong>Ring Nebula (M57)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to its optical correction and f\/10 speed, this model is ideally suited for <strong>high-resolution planetary photography<\/strong> and deep-sky imaging with reducer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Optics<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Type: Schmidt-Cassegrain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Series: EdgeHD<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aperture: 203 mm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Focal length: 2032 mm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aperture ratio: f\/10<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Resolution: 0.57\u2033<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Boundary magnitude: 14.0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max. useful magnification: 400\u00d7<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coating: StarBright XLT<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Backfocus: 133 mm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ventilation: EdgeHD Cooling Vents<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compatibility: 0.7\u00d7 reducer available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mounting (Advanced VX)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Type: Equatorial GoTo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Carrying capacity: 13.5 kg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Motors: Servo, with PEC correction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Encoder: Yes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>GoTo database: \u00b140,000 objects<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alignment: 1-\/2-Star, Solar System, Quick Align, All-Star Polar Alignment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tracking: sidereal, sun, moon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Polar adjustment: 7\u00b0-77\u00b0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Power supply: 12 V \/ 3.5 A<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operation: NexStar+ hand controller<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compatibility: Celestron PWI, CPWI, SkyPortal (WiFi optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tripod<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Material: Steel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Height: 112-163 cm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weight: 8.2 kg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leg diameter: 51 mm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accessory tray: yes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Included<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Eyepiece: 40 mm (1.25\u2033)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Viewfinder: 9\u00d750 optical<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Counterweights: 2 \u00d7 5 kg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adapter: 1.25\u2033 visual back<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hand controller: NexStar+<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dovetail: Vixen-style<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Total weight of set: \u00b132 kg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Application<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Moon &amp;
