Celestron Advanced VX (AVX) 6″ Newtonian (32054)

1,790.00 $

-6” (150mm) f/5 optical design gives excellent wide field views
-Parabolic primary mirror minimizes spherical aberration to produce a better image
-Integer gear ratios and permanently programmable Periodic Error Correction eliminates recurring track errors from the worm gear
-New motors offer improved tracking performance & provide more power to overcome load imbalances
-Updated industrial design offers more rigidity, less flexure and improved aesthetics
-New design allows viewing or imaging across the meridian without interference from the motors housings
-Improved latitude range, can be used between 7 – 77 degrees latitude
-Improved electronics contain increased memory for future expansion
-NexStar+ hand control offers multiple language programming (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish)
