Celestron 93665 Wedge for Nexstar Evolution/SE - Black

Celestron 93665 Wedge for NexStar Evolution/SE – Black

Unlock Long-Exposure Astrophotography with Precision Tracking

The Celestron Wedge for NexStar Evolution and SE Telescopes is an essential accessory for serious astrophotographers looking to capture deep-sky objects with long exposure imaging. Designed specifically for NexStar 6SE, 8SE, and Evolution 6/8/9.25 telescopes, this wedge transforms an Alt-Az mount into an equatorial platform, allowing precise tracking of celestial objects without the effects of field rotation.

Key Features

• Equatorial Conversion for Alt-Az Mounts – Tilts the telescope’s azimuth axis to align with the polar axis, enabling accurate long-exposure tracking.
• Optimised for Astrophotography – Eliminates field rotation, making it ideal for deep-space and planetary imaging.
• Beginner to Intermediate-Friendly – Designed for users looking to enhance their astrophotography capabilities.
• Captive Hardware & Tool-Free Adjustments – Allows for quick and easy setup without additional tools.
• Sturdy Yet Portable Design – A robust yet lightweight construction, perfect for field use.
• Precision Latitude Adjustment – Features a sturdy latitude adjustment screw, an easy-to-read scale, and an integrated bubble level for accurate polar alignment.

Enhanced Equatorial Tracking for Astrophotography

While Alt-Az telescopes work well for short-exposure photography of bright objects, long-exposure imaging of galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters requires equatorial tracking to prevent field rotation. This wedge:

• Aligns the telescope with Earth’s polar axis for accurate arc tracking.
• Enables longer exposure times without image distortion.
• Supports autoguiding, improving deep-sky imaging quality.

Built for Stability and Precision

• Load Capacity: 16.3kg – Sturdy enough to handle NexStar 6SE, 8SE, Evolution 6, 8, and 9.25 telescopes.
• Latitude Range: 0° - 70° – Provides wide latitude adjustability for users worldwide.
• Weight: 6.8kg – Heavy-duty yet portable for convenient setup in the field.

Ideal for Astrophotographers & Observers

The Celestron Wedge is a must-have for anyone looking to:

• Capture long-exposure deep-sky astrophotography.
• Reduce field rotation effects for sharper star images.
• Convert their NexStar Evolution or SE telescope into an equatorial setup.

Elevate Your Imaging Capabilities

With high-precision adjustments, sturdy construction, and easy tool-free setup, the Celestron 93665 Wedge is the perfect addition for beginner to intermediate astrophotographers looking to take their imaging to the next level. Whether you're capturing distant galaxies, nebulae, or planets, this wedge ensures your telescope stays precisely aligned for stunning, professional-quality images.
