Omegon Autoguiding Set 60/240 + 462 M

The Omegon Autoguiding Set 60/240 + 462 M is a complete guiding solution for astrophotography. This set combines a compact but highly accurate 60 mm guidescope with the sensitive Omegon Guide 462 M monochrome camera. Together they form a reliable and stable combination to enable long exposure times with point-like stars.

The guidescope has an aperture of 60 mm and a focal length of 240 mm (f/4). Thanks to the built-in Microspeed worm gear focuser with 10 mm travel distance, you focus very precisely, without camera or eyepiece rotating during focusing. This keeps your chosen tracking star in focus at all times. The sturdy aluminum housing, tube rings and the included Synta-Style mounting plate ensure stable and flexible mounting.

The included Omegon Guide 462 M monochrome camera is equipped with a highly sensitive CMOS sensor, allowing you to use even faint stars as tracking stars. With short exposure times and a high guiding frequency, the camera corrects both small and large tracking errors of the mount. Thanks to its ST4 port and compatibility with PHD2, it works seamlessly with virtually any guiding setup.

Application

The Omegon Guidescope Microspeed Autoguiding Set 60/240 + 462 M is ideal for astrophotography of deep-sky objects requiring long exposure times. With its larger aperture and longer focal length, this set offers higher resolving power than the 50/200 variant, making it particularly suitable for telescopes with longer focal lengths and astrophotographers who want maximum accuracy.
