Omegon Microspeed Guidescope 50 mm: sharp guiding starts with focusing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This 50 mm guidescope combines fast f\/4 optics with the Microspeed focuser. The 200 mm focal length provides a wide field of view with almost always a guide star in it, and the 50 mm aperture also makes weaker stars usable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Microspeed focuser sets this series apart: a rack and pinion drive with a 10 mm travel focuses the guiding camera infinitely and backlash-free. A sharp guide star is half the battle in guiding, because the software can only correct what it sees sharply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Completely lightweight constructed<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With the 1\/4-inch connection, the scope mounts to finder shoes and dovetails without heavy rings. The total weight remains low enough for small mounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the common focal lengths<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A guide scope of 200 mm is sufficient as a rule of thumb for main telescopes with a focal length of up to approximately 1000 mm. Beyond that, the 60 mm version with 240 mm is the safer choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featured accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For autoguiding with a 1.25-inch guiding camera on main telescopes up to approx. 1000 mm focal length. Camera not included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
