Meade LXD75 SC-8AT (f/10) Telescope Review


See more picture


Meade LXD75 SC-8AT (f/10) Telescope Feature

  • Standard Features
  • Telescope Mounting: LXD75, German-type
  • Setting Circle Diameters, RA and Dec.: 2.25"
  • Polar Illuminated Viewfinder: included
  • RA Control System: 9-speed, microprocessor-controlled, 12v DC, 72mm (2.83") wormgear
Aperture: 8-Inch. Focal Length: 2000mm. Focal Ratio: f/10. Ultra High Transmission Coatings (UHTC). Optical Tube Construction Schmidt-Newtonian and Schmidt-Cassegrain optics are mounted in precision-machined aluminum cells and mounted in sturdy steel tubes which are baked with highgrade textured enamel paint. The optical tube assembly is closed, reducing air currents inside the tube. This prevents distortion of an otherwise sharp image. Plus, a closed tube significantly helps keep the optics clean. Corrector Lens Fully corrects for spherical aberration and provides pinpoint star images. Water white glass is used in all Schmidt-Newtonian and Schmidt-Cassegrain corrector lenses to maximize light transmission. The use of water white glass results in an increase of light transmission in excess of 10%, as compared to competing telescopes using soda lime glass. Individually Figured Optics Schmidt-Newtonian and Schmidt-Cassegrain corrector lenses and mirrors are individually figured to create a superior optical system, which is renowned for its exquisite smoothness and performance. Pyrex Primary Mirror Premium-grade Pyrex mirrors are used in all Schmidt-Newtonian and Schmidt-Cassegrain optical systems, providing exceptional thermal stability versus competing models using standard plate glass.

  • 80mm fully coated achromatic objective lens, 400mm focal length
  • Super Bright f/5.0 F-ratio for outstanding brightness
  • 25mm & 10mm Kellner 1.25" diameter eyepieces
  • iOptron SmartStar-A Computer Controlled GPS Equatorial Mount

This GPS telescope does it all with just the push of a button. Simply turn the telescope on, choose the object you want to see on the handheld controller and the computerized mount does the rest. North Star alignment not necessary with GPS. The fully coated achromatic 80mm primary objective lens is maintenance free and ready to use right out of the box. With a short 400mm focal length, this little bundle of power packs a super-fast F/5.0, which means its the perfect light-gathering instrument for wide-field and deep space astronomy. With this kind of light-gathering power, you will see bright images of anything through either of the two powerful Kellner eyepieces. That makes this telescope ideal for just about any observing application. The iOptron SmartStar-A Equatorial Mount with GPS, a.k.a. The Cube, is probably the most functional and flexible unit on the market. Both axis motors are built into a small single unit. In addition, there are no "dead spots" -- so you can point your telescope anywhere above the horizon, whereas, other mounts block the telescope tube at certain points of rotation. This mount also comes standard with AC connection. The mount also accepts 8 AA cell batteries for use at home or in the field (Batteries sold separately). The revolutionary GoToNova computerized control system is the most technologically advanced automated tracking system available on the market today. With a database of 80,000 celestial objects, including all of the most famous galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, not to mention the planets, you'll be able to enjoy star gazing with the simple push of a button. The GoToNova Controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD screen with more lines of content compared with the competition. Using the easy-to-use hand controller, you can easily set up your telescope and select where you want to go.
