Product information "ZWO Seestar Smart Telescope S50 AP50/250"

Smart Telescope for Everyone: Easy Access to the Night Sky
Reach for the stars with the ZWO Seestar S50 Smart Telescope. This innovative, smart apochromat combines high-quality optics and smart technology with incredible ease of use! Imagine sitting relaxed on your terrace, a glass of wine in hand, while the Seestar S50 explores the vast expanses of the universe for you and sends real-time images to your smartphone or tablet.

Astronomy from the Comfort of Your Couch
Simply choose your desired object from the countless galaxies and nebulae available in the star catalog of the intuitive app. The ZWO Seestar S50 Smart Telescope will automatically move to the selected object. The all-rounder automatically focuses on the celestial object before beginning the capture and sends real-time images to your smartphone or tablet. The smart telescope independently sets the optimal camera settings such as exposure time, ISO value, or aperture.

High-Quality Optics Meets Smart Technology
The high-quality apochromat refractor optics of the Seestar S50 ensure exceptionally clear and color-accurate images. The combination of top-notch optics, advanced automatic star recognition, and effective GoTo functionality makes this smart telescope a powerful instrument for night observation and astrophotography – accessible to everyone! The integrated camera supports high resolutions that capture even the finest details in distant galaxies and nebulae.

Focus on the Essentials
The Seestar S50 features an integrated filter change mechanism that can be controlled via the app. By default, the UV/IR-CUT filter is used, eliminating unwanted infrared and ultraviolet light while allowing the crucial H-alpha emission nebula band for astronomical photography to pass through. This results in more contrast-rich images of many deep-sky objects.

Automatic Image Stacking for Razor-Sharp Shots
The Seestar S50 uses the stacking method for creating astrophotos. Multiple individual images are combined or "stacked" in real-time to form a new image. The final image becomes sharper and more detailed as more individual images are combined. Experience how a galaxy millions of light-years away takes shape before your eyes, revealing more details with each passing minute. The result is exceptionally clear images that reveal the depths of space with impressive detail.

For Stacking Pros Too
Already familiar with stacking and prefer to do the image processing yourself? No problem – the Seestar saves each individual image in RAW format in its internal storage on request.

Also a Master of Observation During the Day
Not only stars and galaxies at night, but the Seestar S50 also offers fascinating observation possibilities during the day. Create landscape images and safely observe the sun with the included solar filter, marveling at its impressive sunspots. The S50 is a true all-rounder for any time of day or night.

Share Your Discoveries
The Seestar S50 makes it easy to quickly and easily share your astrophotographic achievements with friends or the astronomy community. With just a few clicks, you can publish your images directly from the app on social networks. Whether capturing fascinating lunar craters, glowing nebulae, or colorful galaxies – share your observations and inspire others with your discoveries!

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT-70 SF Giant Binoculars with 62° LER Eyepieces 20mm
Giant binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape. Observe the beauty of the starry sky at night and distant objects in nature during the day. Globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon with its craters and even planets can be observed wonderfully on a clear night. But also all other distant things in nature and landscape, even ships and airplanes can be seen in detail. With the all-round binoculars of the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series, you can get up very close. Thanks to the large, light-gathering lenses and the professional coatings on all lens surfaces, these binoculars produce bright and brilliant images even at night and at twilight, providing a special viewing pleasure. The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use even when the binoculars are tilted strongly.  Large binoculars can also be called a double refractor telescope One complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is available per eye. Experience a whole new dimension of observing. Objects are reproduced almost vividly in these binoculars and observing with both eyes is basically very relaxed. Last but not least, this comfortable way of observation increases the recognition of the finest details and effectively prevents rapid eye fatigue. Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen  The BT series binoculars are designed for tough outdoor use. The IPX6 sealed and nitrogen-filled design effectively prevents fogging of the internal optics even under difficult weather conditions. The very light magnesium housing saves weight and makes it easy to handle. Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included. EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC is an established manufacturer of extremely high-quality eyepieces in the astronomy scene. An optical system is only as good as its weakest component. Therefore we have decided to deliver these giant binoculars with a pair of quality eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series. With an apparent field of view of 62 degrees and a focal length of 20mm, the BT-70 binoculars produce a 20x magnification. Thus these wide angle eyepieces offer a very good overview (field of view 3,1 degree) at moderate magnification. The large interpupillary distance of these LER (long eye relief) eyepieces of 15mm and soft silicone eyecups, which can be turned inside out, also guarantee a comfortable and relaxed view. For astronomy, a flat and sharp image field is advantageous and offers a particularly impressive viewing experience even during the day. Due to the waterproof design and the argon filling, these eyepieces are absolutely durable and easy to clean. Interchangeable eyepieces with 1.25 inch / 31.7mm plug-in diameter Adjust the magnification and field of view to your individual needs and choose from a wide range of available eyepieces. All eyepiece types with a plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm can be used with the binoculars of the BT series. Especially recommended are EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC eyepieces of the 62 and 82 degree series with focal lengths from 8 to 26mm (see item No. 02188xx and 02196xx). The magnification can be varied from 15x to 50x (focal length binoculars : focal length eyepiece = magnification). The eyepieces are held in the binoculars by a precise brass compression ring clamp and guarantee a tilt free position.  Use of color and nebula filters for astronomical observations Increase the contrast and visibility of objects and details by screwing the corresponding filters directly into the thread of the eyepiece sleeves. The use of color and nebula filters must of course always be done in pairs. Suitable are all EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC screw filters with 1.25inch / 31.7mm diameter (see item No. 03102xx)  Comfortable 45 degree view and helical single focus The 45-degree viewing angle allows a relaxed observation position even when the binoculars are tilted strongly. Also the individual interpupillary distance can be adjusted in a range from 54 to 76mm. With the fine helical individual focusing, precise focusing is achieved effortlessly. Extendable dew caps The integrated dew caps can be removed in high humidity and cold conditions. This avoids fogging of the outer objective lenses and effectively shields additional control light coming in from the side. Integrated carrying handle A metal carrying handle located at the center of gravity facilitates transport and ensures a secure hold during tripod assembly. Suitable tripods and tripod connectionWhen using these large binoculars, a sturdy photo tripod with an appropriate load capacity is highly recommended. The connection is made via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) in the tripod adapter of the binoculars. The ideal solution is to use the optional availlable EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with field tripod (item No. 0114300). This is specially designed for the large binoculars of the BT series and carries these devices absolutely safely. The excellent mechanism with adjustable friction in both axes allows easy moving and tracking. The binocular position is kept stable depending on the adjusted friction intensity. Vibrations are reduced to a minimum by the massive construction of the U-Mount and the large stainless steel tripod. Even at high magnification there are no vibrations and the finest details can be observed.FEATURES Large binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape Observe globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon with its craters and even planets Also wild animals, ships and airplanes can be seen in detail Highly light gathering lenses produce a bright and high-contrast image All-round binoculars, but especially suitable in twilight and at night The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use One complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is available per eye Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included 20x magnification and an apparent field of view of 62 degrees, true visible field of 3,1 degreesLarge interpupillary distance of 15mm to the eyepiece lens for comfortable viewing Eyepieces interchangeable and with standardized plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm The magnification can be adjusted with optional eyepieces from 15x to 50x Precise brass eyepiece compression ring clamps for tilt-free fitColor and nebula filters can be used for astronomical observations Extendable dew caps prevent fogging of the outer objective lenses and stray light Integrated carrying handle facilitates transport and mounting on the tripod Tripod connection via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) Tripod recommendation: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod (Art.No. 0114300) Objective type: Air spaced achromatic lens (2 elements/ 1 group) Coating: full multilayer coating on all optical surfaces Aperture, focal length and aperture ratio: 70mm / 400mm / F=5.7 Sealed to IPX6 standard and nitrogen filled: yes / yes Close focus distance: 12 meters Eyepiece mount diameter: 1.25'' / 31.7mm Adjustable interpupillary distance: 54 to 76 mm Helical single focus: yesBAK-4 prism system for a bright and high-contrast image Dimensions and weight of binoculars: 370 x 213 x 122mm, 3.4kg Housing color of binoculars:  white SCOPE OF DELIVERY Giant binoculars with carrying handle (without tripod)Eyepieces ES 20mm 62 degrees LER Series (2pcs)Precisely fitting foam insert for transport Dust covers for objectives and eyepiece sockets Instruction manual
