Celestron's newest feature Starbright XLT coatings increase light transmision for both visually viewing, AND for CCD imaging! For a completely automated GoTo system, the C 8-SGT (#11026) comes mounted on the CG-5GT computerized EQ mount and allows access to features like automatic star alignment capability and GoTo slewing to over 40,000 objects. Equipped with high speed motors and hand control, the C 8-SGT allows you to remotely slew your telescope to desired objects quickly and accurately. No matter at what level you are starting out, the Advanced GT series is designed to provide you with years of observing pleasure. 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.
