EdgeHD is an aplanatic Schmidt
telescope designed to produce
aberration-free images across a
wide visual and photographic
field of view. The optical system
was designed to reduce more
than just off-axis star coma, but
also to give an astrograph quality
flat focal plane all the way to the
edge of the field of view.
TRUE
ASTROGRAPH QUALITY
Many optical designs that advertise themselves
as “astrograph” quality actually only produce
pinpoint stars across a curved focal plane. While this
may be acceptable for visual observing, stars will
appear out of focus at the edge when used with
a flat chip sensor of a digital camera.
EdgeHD
optics produce a focal plane more than three-times
flatter than a standard Schmidt Cassegrain
telescope and dramatically flatter than other
competing coma-free designs. This guarantees
you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest
CCD chips available today.
IMPROVED PERFORMANCE
Superior edge performance not only creates rounder,
more pleasing stars but actually improves the
resolution and limiting magnitude when
compared to telescopes of equal aperture.
STARBRIGHT XLT® COATINGS
Coupled with Celestron’s StarBright
XLT coating group on every
surface, EdgeHD optics gives you
maximum light throughput
across the widest visual and
photographic spectrum.
