Coronado PST - Personal Solar Telescope 0.5A Bandwidth

Coronado PST - Personal Solar Telescope with 0.5A Bandwidth

The PST is the latest innovation from Coronado. This "little" telescope is another step toward our goal of making it possible for everyone to "Experience the Sun our way."

Sub angstrom H-A systems have long been cost prohibitive for the amateur. Designs other than the Coronado are difficult to use because of temperature and F-Ratio requirements. This PST has a bandpass of <0.5 angstrom.
