The advanced Series family of computerized GoTo telescopes are designed to offer the novice or more advanced user a selection of models with the features and quality that serious amateurs can appreciate.
CG-5 MOUNT PRESISION ENGINEERED FOR STABILITY
The CG-5 German Equatorial Mount has precision worm gears located on both axes for extremely smooth operation. The key component in making this system the most stable in it's class is the heavy-duty tripod. Featuring larger and more substantial legs that offer excellent dampening characteristics for the most stable views. The CG-5 comes equipped with a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar Finderscope fore the ultimate in precision alignments.
GoTo CONVIENCE AND GPS COMPATIBILITY FOR PRECISION ACCURACY
Then use our revolutionary SkyAlign technology to align your telescope. Simply locate and manually point (slew) the telescope to three bright celestial objects. You do not need to know the names of the stars - you may even pick the moon or bright planets!.Celestron prodly offer the Advanced Series on a computerized GoTo CG-5 mount. Couple this solidly-built mount with the included NexStar® computerized control system to utilize several of the same functions and feaatures as Celestron's most advanced GoTo Telescopes. The Advanced Series can be upgraded to GPS with the optional CN16 GPS Accessory (#93966).
