Celestron Advanced VX - C11 SCT GoTo Telescope - 279/2800mm

Celestron Advanced VX C11 SC Goto Telescope

The Celestron C11 on the new Advanced VX GoTo mount is our recommendation for mobile astronomical observation. There is probably no other telescope which combines comparable aperture and this compactness. The C11 can easily be transported on the backseat of any automobile and still someone can sit next to it. The mount is well utilized with the 12 kg heavy telescope, but due to the robust workmanship, it is still held well. Even astrophotography is possible if one works sheltered.

With the practical internal focusing you can get into focus with any accessories, from a binoviewer to a photographic reducer/corrector.
