This fast optics make even fainter guide stars visible, so your guide camera will almost always find a target immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At just 240 g (8.5 oz), the UniGuide barely adds any weight to your setup. The integrated Vixen\/Synta-style slide-base rail slides directly into the carrying handles of William Optics telescopes: no loose guide scope rings, no alignment work. This version is gold, matching your William Optics optical tube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-1.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-2.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-3.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-4.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-5.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-6.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8d39b2df wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:38%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-32mm-Guidescope-UniGuide-Gold-2.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics UniGuide 32 mm guidescope gold\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:62%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Focusing and camera mount<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The helical focusing on the front lens turns smoothly and without play; once focused, it stays focused.
