Product description
This compact guide scope is a top-guality solution for all astrophotographers who need a compact guide scope but don´t want a piggyback configuration. The TSL50D fits directly into the standard finder base of your telescope, thus mounting is really easy. If you do not like to remove your finder or if you do not have a standard finder base, there are suitable bracket shoes.

The TSL50D offers accurate tracking up to to 1000 mm focal length of the imaging optics. With special autoguiders which work in the sub-pixel range, even focal distances up to 1500 can be tracked.

By the generous adjustment range of 41 mm and the more than sufficient back-focus of 36 from 1.25" or T2 connections, eyepieces can be effortlessly focused as well as all popular guiding cameras.
