Description
The Celestron C11 11" SCT Optical Tube Assembly is an excellent gem for serious astrophotgraphers who enjoy crisp images with shorter exposure times. Being lightweight with its aluminum design, it is only 24" in length with a weight of 27.5 pounds, thus still making is reasonably portable to be taken to locations for viewing or imaging with one person.

Using the Celestron Starbright XLT Coatings, high contrast views at high magnification are a walk in the park! The coatings increase contrast and light transmission; significantly improving image quality to very superior standards which is a major plus for shorter exposure astrophotography. When taking into account the durability of the Fastar system as well as the f/6.3 focal reducer, making shorter exposure times even better at 25 times shorter at f/2 than its typical f/10 optical focal ratio.

Features:

  • Cutting edge optics with the 11" SCT design, an astrophotographer must have!
  • Starbright XLT Coatings renders excellent quality views and images
  • The Fastar application turns an f/10 system to an f/2 for very short exposure times
  • Lightweight and portable enough for relatively easy transportation
