Product description

Capture the Stars at Your Fingertips

The Seestar smart app allows you to explore the solar system, stargaze, or enjoy scenic views. With multiple imaging modes, voice prompts, and seamless smartphone control, Seestar S30 transforms beginners into astronomy pros with ease.

Seestar S30 integrates two telescopes, an electric focuser, an astronomical camera, a dew heater, an ASIAIR intelligent controller, an altazimuth mount and a filter wheel (UV/IR cut, duo-band, dark) into a single unit, with a body weight of only 1.79 kg.

With the use of a mobile app, it allows for easy capturing of celestial objects such as the Sun, Moon, galaxies and nebulae.

Fully control your imaging

Quickly learn the weather and recommendations for tonights viewing, then select the celestial targets or landscape mode you are going to shoot.

Click to start shooting - that´s how easy it is!

Discover the hidden universe

Observe the universe like never before: Seestar S30 allows you to create stunning images using live stacking mode. The more images you capture the more color and details will grow before your eyes. Things you can not witness with your naked eye will be gradually revealed.

Immersive visual experience

The professional grade triplet apochromatic optics offers beautifully crisp images of the night sky with excellent control of chromatic aberration. The high-quality coating also helps reduce light loss.

To increase the contrast of emission nebulae, it is possible to replace the UV/IR cut filter normally in the beam path with a dua-band filter by means of a built-in filter changer. This filter will block much of the light pollution and natural sky lightening.

Sony IMX662 Sensor (Starvis 2)

With high sensitivity and low noise, even during extended deep-sky captures, noise interference is minimized, ensuring superior performance in the darkest nights.

Wide-angle range

You want to take pictures of objects during the day, but they get lost among many similar ones or are simply stretched out? No problem, a wide-angle system provides a good overview. The fourth image shows the effect of this helpful function.

Smart noise reduction with automatic post-processing

One-tap image creation, reducing noise while preserving celestial detail, ensures clarity even in heavily light-polluted areas. You can also fine-tune your image´s style to suit your taste and share your stunning shots instantly.

Built-in Wi-Fi/Bluetooth

The telescope comes with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and can be used anywhere.

Built-in sensors

Built-in sensors assist in tripod leveling using your mobile phone screen.

Light weight design

The entire setup weighs only 1.79 kg, so the Seestar S30 can easily accompany you when travelling.

Automatic setup and guidance
