The
C9 1/4-S telescope combines the unequaled optical excellence of a Celestron 9
1/4" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with the economical CG-5 German equatorial
mount. The 9 1/4" was specifically designed for visual infinity focus when using
2" eyepieces and has an optimized baffle system to benefit astrophotography by
minimizing vignetting at the edge of the field of view. Its longer primary focal
length and lower magnification secondary mirror contribute to a flatter field of
view at the focal plane and helps to further reduce optical aberrations. The C9
1/4-S optical system comes with StarBright®coatings.
The optimized baffling system benefits astrophotography and gives high contrast
views of the planets. With 33% more light gathering than the 8" model, the C9
1/4-S is compatible with the complete line of Celestron photographic and visual
accessories.
CG-5 Mount - Precision engineered for stability.
Our new German Equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for
extremely smooth stability. The key element that makes this system the most
stable in its class is the NEW heavy-duty tripod with larger and more
substantial legs that offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable
views. The CG-5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an
optional polar finder scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.
