For sale:
Optically excellent example of Celestron C11 SCT.

It was measured by Roddier test having a Strehl of 0.94+, which is easily confirmed by a star test in good conditions as well as numerous excellent planetary images of which some are attached.

Note that images are invariably lessened by jpeg compression necessary to be included here.
Always kept inside, covered. Optics are pristine and very clean. Any inspection is welcome.

Included is a sizeable number of accessories that are actually not only useful but rather essential:

- Lymax R2 CATcooler with lifetime supply of filters (absolutely necessary for any SCT to work at optimum)
- JMI EventHorizon 2" electric focuser for nailing that focus perfectly every time without waiting for vibrations to die out
- Kendrick flexible dewshield
- 11" dewstrap heater
- Losmandy 3" dovetail
- Bob'sKnobs for fast and easy collimation
- Celestron 0.63X reducer-corrector (I actually prefer view with Pan 24 and this, rather than with 35 Panoptic straight, as it shows less field curvature)
- 1-1/4" as well as 2" adapters

Unit is in Melbourne, I do have original boxes and can ship at cost but prefer local pickup.


I know there were some cheap C11's around but this one is optically exceptional and if you were to separately buy all of the accessories that are included, you'd easily spend way over $800.

Reason for sale - 16" optics with similar quality makes a better planetary instrument - simple laws of physics.

PM's only please.
