Precision instrument designed to expand as your interest in astronomy grows

For a completely automated GoTo system, the C91/4-SGT comes mounted on the CG-5GT computerized EQ mount and allows access to features like automatic star alignment capability and GoTo slewing to over 40,000 objects.

Equipped with high speed motors and hand control, the C91/4-SGT allows you to remotely slew your telescope to desired objects quickly and accurately. The 9 1/4” was specifically designed for visual infinity focus when using 2" eyepieces and has an optimized baffle system to benefit astrophotography by minimizing vignetting at the edge of the field of view.

Its longer primary focal length and lower magnification secondary mirror contribute to a flatter field of view at the focal plane and helps to further reduce optical aberrations. No matter what your ability level is, this precision instrument is design to expand as your interest in astronomy grows.


CG-5 MOUNT — Precision Engineered For Stability
The new German Equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for extremely smooth stability. The new heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs offers excellent damping characteristics for more stable views, making it the most stable system in its class. The CG-5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar finder scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.
