ZWO Seestar S50 Pro Smart Telescope
The Seestar S50 Pro takes the original S50 concept and expands it into a much more capable imaging system. It keeps the familiar 50mm all in one design while adding a second wide angle camera, higher resolution imaging, more storage, longer battery life and new tools for capturing everything from deep sky objects to the Milky Way.
Dual 4K Imaging
The S50 Pro uses two 8.29MP cameras, each with a resolution of 3840 × 2160. The main telephoto camera provides a 2.8° field of view for deep sky and solar system imaging, while the new wide angle camera opens up a huge 63° field of view for Milky Way photography, star trails and nightscapes.
The 50mm f/5.2 optical system uses a 4 element APO design with a 260mm focal length.
One Telescope, More Ways to Image
The S50 Pro is designed for more than traditional deep sky imaging. Four imaging modes allow you to photograph deep sky objects, the solar system, the Milky Way and star trails, or use the telescope for scenic photography.
Automatic GoTo, centering, tracking and live stacking handle the complicated parts of the imaging process, while automated imaging plans let you set up an observing session with minimal configuration.
Faster Setup
NFC instant pairing makes connecting to the S50 Pro quick and simple. Tap to connect and get started without going through a lengthy setup process.
Longer Nights
A built in 10,000mAh battery provides up to 7 hours of astrophotography operation under typical stacking conditions. Integrated dew prevention helps keep the optics clear as temperatures drop throughout the night.
The S50 Pro also doubles the internal storage of the original S50 from 64GB to 128GB.
Built In Processing
Images can be processed directly with tools including star removal, star reduction, noise reduction, crop and rotate, image optimization and DBE background extraction.
