Celestron - 9.25" EdgeHD (Optical Tube) mount Cassegrain telescopes are traditionally more

Cassegrain telescopes are traditionally more advantageous than other similar designs such as SCT's which generally contain more basic spherical mirrors and a larger central obstruction

This is a mount assembly kit only and must be used with an approved 'Solar Film' such as the Baader Solar Safety Film here

This gives you then 60mm backfocus

This telescope's ease of use and simple setup makes it ideal for getting started with H-Alpha solar observation

Celestron - 9.25" EdgeHD (Optical Tube) mount Cassegrain telescopes are traditionally moreThe EdgeHD optics (Edge High Definition) combine the compact design of a Schmidt Cassegrain with significantly improved imaging at the edge of the image. This optical system not only offers the properties of astrographs, but also produces completely undistorted, sharp images right up to the edge of the large visual and photographic field of view. Not only is the coma outside the optical axis corrected as with other "coma free" optical designs
