If
you're looking for a superior first telescope with a traditional German
equatorial mount or want to move up to a larger aperture telescope, consider
the G-8 telescope (Model #11023) which is mounted on the CG-5 EQ mount, the
newest generation of Celestron's German mounts. Both axes of the equatorial
mount have precision worm gears for extremely smooth motion.
This heavy duty mount delivers jitter-free
images easily and the adjustable height, very rigid tripod has excellent
damping characteristics and a convenient accessory tray.
Included are setting circles on both axes,
slow-motion controls and latitude scale. An adjustable counterweight makes
it easy to point, balance and use.
The G-8 optical system comes with Starbright®
coatings and its large aperture offers light gathering power 843 times that
of the human eye.
An optional polar alignment scope for fast
polar alignment as well as a motor drive is available for easy tracking.
