Celestron EdgeHD 14 inch Schmidt Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly with StarBright XLT Coatings Celestron EdgeHD 14″ Schmidt Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly with StarBright XLT Coatings EdgeHD is an aplanatic Schmidt telescope designed to produce aberration-free images across a wide visual and photographic field of view. The optical system was designed to reduce more than just off-axis star coma but also to give an astrograph quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view. EdgeHD optics produce a focal plane more than three-times flatter than a standard Schmidt Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter than other competing coma-free designs.Starbright XLT Coatings coupled with Celestron’s StarBright XLT coating group on every surface EdgeHD optics gives you maximum light throughput across the widest visual and photographic spectrum. In addition to Celestron’s new optimized optical design the EdgeHD tube has been redesigned to make sure you get the most from your optics each and every night. Flexible tension clutches hold the mirror in place and reduce image shift when rotating the tube around the mount. The flexible rods allow the mirror to be held in place without putting any force or pressure on the mirror assembly keeping the image centered in the eyepiece or chip. Cooling vents located on the rear cell allow hot air to be released from behind the primary mirror. Each vent has an integrated 60 micron micro-mesh filter guaranteed to let warm air out without letting dust in. The EdgeHD is the most versatile imaging scope available today. At its native f/10 you can achieve the image scale necessary to capture the smallest of deep sky objects.
