Celestron Radial Guider
Item#: CELE185- Allow for simutaneously photograph and guide
- Part of light path is redirected upward to another viewing spot
- Manually guide or autoguide via a separate guide camera
- For use with SCT type telescopes
Developed primarily for use in prime focus, deep-sky imaging or astrophotography with Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, Celestron's Radial Guider is compact and sleek in design. It allows you to photograph and guide through the optical tube assembly of your telescope simultaneously, ensuring the highest-quality images. It virtually eliminates differential flexure, too, because guiding and photographing both take place through the telescope..
The radial guider is compatible with Celestron's C5, C8, C9¼, C11 and C14 telescopes and comes with a unique prism-angle adjustment screw. It must be used with a guiding eyepiece, camera T-Ring and drive corrector (dual axis preferred). It's primarily for use with catadioptric telescopes, but it also works on refractor telescopes having adequate back focus.
Celestron's radial guider is a tremendous improvement over conventional off-axis guilders. Not only does it enable you to vary the angle of the prism, but it maintains a fixed camera orientation while offering users the freedom to move the guiding eyepiece radially about 135 degrees.
The Celestron radial guider is a must-have accessory for all astrophotographers and imagers!
