Celestron EdgeHD 8" Optical Tube Assembly
The EdgeHD is an aplanatic, flat field Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope that produces 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; it also provides an astrograph-quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view.

The Celestron EdgeHD Telescope advantages:
wide and fully corrected field for astro photography - flat and free of coma.
unrestricted visual suitability
Main mirror lock - prevents the mirror from shifting
Main mirror ventilation for shorter cool-down time
Every HD telescope is Fastar compatible and can be turned into a f/2 Schmidt Camera.
With the StarBright XLT, Celestron disposes of one of the best coatings we know. Thus offering the HD telescopes a very bright and full-contrast picture.
Easy Collimation: guarantees ideal performance every time. Edge HD’s precision-machined mechanics and a spherical secondary mirror make collimation simple and accurate.

"Perfect dream scope Lightweight/agile/long focal length I also have a C11, but when working mobile, the C8 is so much easier to handle. Quick install and operational Quality image"

"Solide Optik hoher Qualität , Sofort an Mond, Planeten und Doppelsternen , hellen DSO eingesetzt. Für fotografischen Einsatz ausbaufähig. Was man als Zubehör neben guten Okularen unbedingt braucht ist eine Taukappe, macht sonst Probleme."
