Meade 8 Inch LX90-ACF Advanced Coma-Free Telescope with UHTC

Meade 8-Inch LX90-ACF Advanced Coma-Free Telescope with UHTC The LX90GPS can locate over 30000 objects including itself. Turn it on and the built-in Sony GPS receiver immediately determines your precise date time and location. In just minutes your scope is ready to give you a tour of the most spectacular sights in the universe with GPS precision. With all the features of a legendary LX90 Schmidt-Cassegrain plus the ability to track satellites Meades new LX90 GPS has it all.When you consider competing methods of alignment (synchronizing your telescopes computer with the night sky) nothing is easier than Meades AutoAlign. Not even competing three-object alignment methods. Thats because LX90GPS telescopes are smart scopes that know the night sky right out of the box. When it comes to industry leading optics oversized primary mirrors depth of features and value for your dollar the LX90GPS is the best Schmidt-Cassegrains on the market. Choosing the LX90GPS- an easy decision.If youre considering a telescope in this price range you may know there are other Schmidt-Cassegrains out there. Feel free to shop the market but make no mistake; the Meade LX90GPS is the top Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope on the market today. Its accurate drive system and world-class optics annihilate competing scopes. If you dont feel like shopping forever before you buy just decide on the LX90GPS today. Choose an aperture that suits your needs purchase a DSI Imager for astrophotography and youre good to go. If youd like to see what else is out there here are some things to consider:Diffraction-limited Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain opticsStar parties all over the world are raving about Meade optics. Dr. P Clay Sherrod of the Arkansas Sky Observatory says I have to say that Meade optics have reached an amazingly sophisticated and consistent level of quality these past few years. I test optics so Ive noticed. Sadly some companies out there are cutting corners on optics.Sky & Telescope called LX90 GPS optics diffraction-limited giving them high marks on the optical bench calling them smooth and well corrected. Youre buying a real instrument here. Buy the Meade LX90GPS and you wont be sorry.Accurate pointing and trackingAutoStar is the standard among sky navigation systems. Sky & Telescope magazine called the LX90s tracking excellent and the pointing 100 percent accurate.Astrophotographer Steve Hamiliton says his LX90 performed flawlessly out-of-the box adding the well-built mount also supports added accessories like guide scopes and counterweights without compromising the rock-solid stability required for long exposure astrophotography.Larger mirrors faster motors easier alignmentOnly Meade Schmidt-Cassegrains have oversized primary mirrors which are larger than the scopes listed aperture to capture all of the light. Further Meads faster slew speeds mean youll spend more time observing and less time waiting on your telescope (not a bad benefit in sub-freezing weather). Finally no matter what you hear about alignment it doesnt get any easier than automatic. The LX90GPS is so smart it knows the night sky righ out-of-the-box. You dont have to teach it the night sky by manually slewing to three bright objects. It finds two alignment stars for you automatically.The UHTC advantageMeade Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) are an amazing scientific breakthrough that increases brightness by the equivalent of nearly and inch of aperture (depending on scope size). These coatings are exclusive to Meade and make a real difference over competing scopes. Image brightness is increasing by 15% over standard coatings.
