On the evening of August 12, 2026, an extraordinary celestial event is on the horizon: A total solar eclipse will pass over parts of Europe—though not over Germany.
Here in Germany, we will experience an impressive partial eclipse, which will nonetheless offer a rare and spectacular sight. Germany will be entirely within the Moon’s penumbra. As a result, the sun will not be completely, but clearly and visibly “nibbled away.”
What do you need to safely observe the solar eclipse? You can find a list 👉 here!

CCD / CMOS Astrofoto Photography
For the successful hunt for celestial objects you will find the electronic aids here: sensors, OAG, accessories and important filters. A wide selection is available.
High-performance monochrome astro camera - large 2.3 megapixel sensor for solar, lunar and planetary photography and for deep-sky imaging
This camera is excellent for sun and moon with its large sensor, but can also be used very well for deep sky because of the low noise.
Powerful monochrome astro camera with very fast Sony 2.1 megapixel sensor - with autoguiding connector
The ASI 482 CMOS color camera offers a very high sensitivity with a QE of 85% and a large modern Sony sensor for all applications in astrophotography.
Die Colorkamera bietet einen großen Sensor, hohe Empfindlichkeit, Auflösung und Bildrate. Sie ist hervorragend für Planeten, aber auch für Sonne sowie Mond geeignet, und selbst für Deep Sky.
The camera offers an extremely high resolution and is optimized for lunar and planetary photography without additional Barlow directly in the focus of the telescope.
