PrimaLuceLab GIOTTO Flat Field Generator 120 (75750)
290 $
Tax included
In astrophotography, calibration plays a crucial role in enhancing results, achieved through the capture and utilization of specialized calibration frames: flat, dark, and bias. Among these, flat frames hold particular significance as they are obtained by directing the telescope towards a white surface, effectively minimizing the impact of vignetting and dust-induced shadows on the optical system.

Sky-Watcher Camera Stand-alone Autoguider SynGuider II
364.82 $
Tax included
The SynGuider revolutionizes equatorial mount guiding by eliminating the need for a PC or laptop, streamlining astro-photography sessions and ensuring perfectly round stars during long exposures. Supplied with a guiding handset & cable, serial cable, and battery pack, it operates independently, requiring only 4 x D-Size 1.5v batteries or an alternative power supply meeting DC6v-12v specifications (lower voltage recommended).
Sky-Watcher Flattener 0.85x EvoStar 150 ED
263.82 $
Tax included
The flattener, also known as a field flattener, is an essential lens designed to rectify the slight curvature induced by the primary optics, ensuring an even field. This curvature often results in diminished sharpness of stars at the edges of the field of view. By employing the flattener, astrophotographers can capture images where stars retain their sharpness throughout the exposure, providing enhanced visual appeal. 
Starlight Xpress Camera Lodestar X2 Autoguider Color (45608)
628.67 $
Tax included
While the original Lodestar utilized the ICX429 Exview chip from Sony, renowned for its exceptional sensitivity, Sony has now upgraded it to the ICX829. This latest 'Exview 2' chip boasts significantly improved Quantum Efficiency (QE) and reduced read noise, effectively doubling the Lodestar's sensitivity and adding nearly a full magnitude to the minimum guide star brightness.
TeleVue Coma corrector Paracorr Type 2 (22951)
702.07 $
Tax included
The optical chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Tele Vue's groundbreaking 82-degree Nagler and 100+ degree Ethos eyepieces set industry standards for the largest, flattest, and best-corrected visual fields. Pairing the Nagler/Ethos revolution with the Dobsonian revolution and Paracorr creates an ideal combination for breathtaking wide and sharp "spacewalk" observing.
