• Visual back allows for use with 1.25-inch accessories.
• The Star diagonal provides a comfortable viewing position when observing objects high in the sky.

Special Features

Versatility

Using an f/6.3 Focal Reducer makes it accessible to a wide variety of CCD cameras. As a visual instrument, you can search for all of the Messier Catalog, NGC Galaxies, and Caldwell objects. Turn this scope to the planets and see amazing detail on the surface of Jupiter; see Cassini’s Division in the rings of Saturn, and resolve details on the surface of Mars. Even the distant Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are within your reach.

Improved

The Celestron C11 is Celestron’s first new Schmidt-Cassegrain optical system in over a decade. This new 11-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain features a precision optical system with 2800 mm focal length, a focal ratio of f/10, and comes standard with Celestron’s StarBright XLT coatings.
