HyperStar high-speed CCD imaging is now available for select Meade telescopes. By mounting the HyperStar lens assembly in place of the secondary mirror, a CCD camera can be mounted at the front of the telescope allowing for a wider field of view and much faster imaging.
The HyperStar lens assembly works with a variety of cameras from SBIG, Starlight Xpress, SAC, Orion, Meade, and Astrovid. Different cameras require different adapters, however. One adapter is included with the HyperStar lens. Please specify the camera being used when ordering.
A holder is included for safe storage of the secondary mirror while imaging.
The HyperStar systems allows the telescope to operate at a focal ratio of f/1.8, an incredible 30 times faster than the standard f/10 focal ratio! Images can be obtained in just seconds!
Check out the HyperStar Website for more details and images taken using the HyperStar system.
