This is a photo-visual optical tube featuring a triplet objective lens combined with a built-in field flattener lens. By placing an SD glass element at the center of the objective lens unit, it achieves exceptional chromatic aberration correction, resulting in sharp, clear images.
Additionally, the fourth objective lens (corrector lens) ensures that star images remain within 20 microns throughout the edge of the field of view. With the adoption of numerically controlled Precision Multicoating, light transmission of 99.5% per surface is achieved across the 400–700 nm wavelength range.

A "Wireless Unit" is included as standard, enabling you to control your equatorial mount with your smartphone or tablet. By installing the free dedicated smartphone app "STAR BOOK Wireless" on your smartphone, you can use it as a controller.
The "STAR BOOK Wireless" smartphone app inherits the highly acclaimed interface of the STAR BOOK TEN controller, renowned for its ease of use. Simply view the star chart displayed on your screen, tap the celestial object you want to observe, and the mount will automatically slew to it and begin tracking. Following the intuitive display design of the STAR BOOK TEN, the app is easy for anyone to use without difficulty.
