The
C10-N is the largest Newtonian in its class with 178% more
light gathering than the 6 inch model and almost twice the
resolving power. The optics of the C10-N telescope are  manufactured
to Celestron‘s uncompromising standards. The C10-N uses
diffraction-limited parabolic primary mirrors for razor sharp
star images across a wide field of view. This telescope is
mounted on the very rigid CG-5 German Equatorial mount. A
counterweight, latitude scale, setting circles, and slow motion
controls on both axes are standard, so you have a fully loaded
telescope right from the start.
CG-5 Mount
- Precision engineered for stability.
Our new German Equatorial mount has precision worm gears on
both axes for extremely smooth stability. The key element
that makes this system the most stable in its class is the
NEW heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs
that offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable
views. The CG-5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier
alignment and an optional polar finder scope for the ultimate
in precision alignments.
