The key issue in astrophotography is proper guiding. The cameras used for this very often require a computer connection, which in practice means the necessity to take care of powering another element of astronomical equipment.
This problem is solved by the Lacerta MGEN-3 guider. This device, thanks to the use of innovative algorithms that allow tracking up to 100 stars at the same time, offers a precision of 1/50 of a pixel - unmatched in its class.
This guider can work both in a standalone mode, using a dedicated controller, and be controlled by a laptop with Windows. • Ability to track up to 100 stars simultaneously for the best possible accuracy
• ready for action with the press of a button
• high sensitivity thanks to subtracting a dark frame in real time
• ditherhing support to reduce the noise level
• built-in Wifi module • T2 + 1.25 ": 26 mm
• 1.25 ": 3.5 mm
