Capturer d'impressionnantes images du ciel profond n'a jamais été aussi simple qu'avec le nouveau Rowe-Ackermann astrographe Schmidt de CELESTRON.
Le Rowe-Ackermann Astrographe Schmidt est le parfait compagnon des meilleurs appareils photos réflexes numériques et CCD. Ce système rapide à champ large vous offrira deux avantages en comparaison au traditionnel f/10. Grâce à un meilleur suivi apparent et un temps d'exposition plus court, vous aurez la possibilité de prendre de plus belles images en une fraction de secondes, sans même avoir à utiliser l'autoguidage.
Le tube optique 11 pouces (f/2.2) Rowe Ackermann Astrographe Schmidt est conçu avec des verres de qualité. Une conception unique qui vous permettra de disposer d'images sans erreur de couleurs, tâches ou courbures de champ.Un diamètre de 70 mm pour une qualité d'image optimale.
Performance Optique
Grâce au design unique du Rowe-Ackermann astrographe Schmidt, le vignettage est minimal et la qualité optique du cercle de l'image est sans précédent pour un astrographe de cette gamme de prix.
Fonctions avancées
Le ventilateur silencieux 12V MagLev réduit la phase de refroidissement et bloque la poussière dans le tube optique. Tous les composants du Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrographe vous permettront une performance maximale de vos appreils photos réflexes numériques et CCD.
Capturing impressive deep-sky astroimages is easier than ever with Celestron’s Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) V2, the perfect companion to today’s top DSLR or astronomical CCD cameras. This fast, wide-field f/2.2 system allows for shorter exposure times compared to traditional f/10 astroimaging, without sacrificing resolution. Because shorter sub-exposure times are possible, your equatorial mount won’t need to accurately track over extended periods. The short focal length also lessens equatorial tracking demands. In many cases, autoguiding will not be required.
RASA 11 V2 builds on the legacy of Celestron’s Schmidt Cameras, which allowed astrophotographers to produce images with much shorter exposure times on film in the 1970s.
Today, with CCD sensor sizes as large as film or larger, the RASA 11 V2 offers a 43.3mm optimized image circle to capture pinpoint stars on the largest imaging chips. Optical performance for huge sensors with diagonals of up to 52mm wide is still excellent.
Combine this large image circle with a focal length of just 620mm and you have an instrument suitable for wide-field imaging, creating huge mosaics of the night sky, surveying, and even comet hunting.
Optical Performance
The RASA 11 V2 features optics with 4-element rare-earth glass for images free of false color and aberrations like coma and field curvature. The optical quality and spot size across the entire image circle are unprecedented for an astrograph in this price range—or even that of a much more expensive instrument. The design also provides minimal vignetting.
Advanced Features
RASA 11 V2 utilizes the new Ultra-Stable Focus System (USFS). At the heart of this system is a precision linear ball bearing. The bearing serves to minimize focus shift (unwanted lateral motion of the primary mirror during focusing which causes shifting of the image) and mirror flop (movement of the primary mirror when the telescope is pointing to different positions in the sky). The USFS is also compatible with the optional Celestron Focus Motor (#94155-A). The integrated 12V DC MagLev fan reduces cooldown time and provides optimal airflow through the dust-filtered optical tube.
Engineered as a complete astroimaging system, every component of the RASA 11 V2 is optimized for peak performance with DSLR and astronomical CCD cameras. Down to the thickness of the glass used in the included fully-multicoated optical window or optional imaging filter, every component of the system has been taken into careful consideration to work together seamlessly. The Dovetail CGE bars on the top of the optical tube provide a connection for use of optional accessories like a guide scope.
