Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescopes

Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes combine a large aperture with a short, portable tube, making them the most versatile Celestron design for planets, the Moon and deep-sky objects. The range runs from the NexStar 5SE and Evolution 6 to C6 and C14 optical tubes, with EdgeHD versions that add a flat field for imaging.

Kits pair these optics with NexStar Evolution, Advanced VX, CGEM II, CGX and CGX-L mounts. Reducers, cameras and HyperStar systems extend an SCT into astrophotography.
