2020年11月16日 · The Celestron Edge HD 8″ (800) telescope offers a 2030mm focal length and a 203mm (8″) aperture at a reasonable price ($1599). Its compact and lightweight design, weighing 6.3 kg (14 lbs) and measuring 432mm (17″) in length, ensures easy portability, setup, and …

2025年3月30日 · I also engage in casual planetary imaging with the edge HD 8″ at native focal length with one of my planetary cameras. I’d recommend at least an 8″ telescope to image the planets, as discussed in this v/blog about good telescopes for planetary imaging. For more information and my experiences with the Edge HD 8″, check out this video.

2022年12月3日 · The Edge HD 8” boasts ahigher number of users (631) and shared images (6930), but has a lower image ratio of 11. Surprisingly, the NexStar 8SE (which is mostly sold with an Alt-Az mount and optional wedge) also ties in third place with 148 users, 2229 shared images, and an imaging ratio of 15.1.

2021年3月9日 · Ik heb een vraag over guiding camera’s. Ik heb een Celestron 8” edge hd, met een standaard Celestron 50mm Finder scope. Ik wil graag een guide camera dat hierbij past. Mij is de ZWO 220mm aangeraden, en de William optics uniguide 50mm. Ik zie echter ook dat de Celestron Starsense Autoguider binnenkort verkrijgbaar is.

2024年3月21日 · Notably, the Edge HD boasts a slightly shorter stature and a smaller secondary mirror compared to the Meade LX-200 8″ ACF. When comparing modified SCTs with larger focal lengths, the Meade LX-200 ACF 10″ offers a wider aperture (254mm vs. 235mm) and a longer focal length (2500mm vs. 2350mm) than the Celestron 9.25″ Edge HD telescope.

2023年3月23日 · As already mentioned, tracking was well below 1 arcsecond – on average about .5 to .7 in RA and about .5 in DEC – across various imaging nights, using various telescopes like my TS APO 80/480MM APO refractor, and my Celestron Edge HD 8″. Interestingly, guiding results were very similar when using either a 480mm focal length up to 1500mm ...

2024年4月24日 · Hi Adam, thanks. Just as a follow up: I’v tested my ZWO AM5 now on 6 nights with gear varying from a lightweight APO refractor to my heavier 8″ Edge HD SCT Telescope with camera, guidcam, filterwheel etc. My ZWO doesn’t seem to mind the extra weight. Guiding is always below one arcsecond, mostly around .5 to .7 in RA and DEC. Cheers.

2024年3月20日 · Besides the fast USB 3.0 output for camera connectivity, two additional USB 2.0 outputs are available to connect additional devices such as your filter wheel. Its Sony IMX585 8.3 MP sensor has a pixel size of 2.9 microns, a Full Well capacity of 40,000 electrons, a (max.) quantum efficiency of 91%, and a video speed of 47 FPS at full resolution.

2020年9月10日 · I’m happy to state that, in this respect, the mount didn’t disappoint. I’ve been mounting my bigger telescope: an 8″ F/12 Classical Cassegrain, my tracking gear, filter wheel, and camera(s) on the skywatcher EQ6R-Pro for planetary imaging and deep-sky sessions. I’m happy to report that the mount was perfectly able to handle the weight.
