Description:

Meade's LXD75 series are offered in Schmidt-Cassegrain designs classic high-quality refractor designs as well as Newtonian and Schmidt-Newtonian reflectors. All of the LXD75 line feature strong motorized German-type equatorial mounts with nine movement speeds as well as 2.00 focusers to accept 2.00 diagonals prisms and eyepieces. Having 2.00 focusers greatly adds to the versatility of this exciting lineup. The Schmidt-Newtonian telescope design is exclusive to Meade and represents a great breakthrough for those with a burgeoning interest in amateur astronomy. The battle for market share between telescope types has always involved tradeoffs of the size value and optical quality of the unit. Optical purists usually endure the enormous refractors for their stellar optical quality beginners often select Newtonian reflectors for their great light gathering capacity per dollar and those in between often chose the Schmidt-Cassegrain type for its combination of the two attributes. The Schmidt-Newtonian solves both of these problems offering a much larger usable viewing field thanks to a corrective lens which also seals the unit to prevent the habitual entry of dust dew and debris. In one fell swoop the Newtonian's appeal roars back to the forefront. This version also includes Meade's UHTC Ultra High Transmission Coatings an important feature to optimize the performance of your Meade telescope. Technologies developed at the Meade Irvine coatings facility have optimized the visual and photographic performance of Meade telescopes. The UHTC coatings employed upon all optical surfaces result in a 20% decrease in light loss and a dramatic enhancement in detail of deep space objects. Included with most of the LXD75 series the Autostar Suite is a gargantuan leap forward in guiding your telescope. But that's not all. It also has a LPI imager as simply attached as inserting an eyepiece and this contains a CMOS sensor which has VGA-effective resolution and magnification similar to a 6mm eyepiece.

Can you ship them together?

from different locations. Unfortunately, this means that we must ship

time.

Q. Can I have a package delivered without a signature
requirement?
A. You may have a package delivered without a signature
requirement. However, some carriers will not leave packages at certain
residences due to their own security and delivery guidelines. In these
cases, the driver will leave a "call tag" with a number you can call to
reschedule delivery. We recommend shipping to a location where someone
can accept and sign for your package.

merchandise over the Internet and paying through our checkout service.
We utilize a technology called Secure Socket Layer (SSL), which creates
a "secured" shopping mode to encrypt all sensitive information before
it's sent over the Internet.

Q. What does 'Refurbished' really mean?
A. The quality Refurbished products you'll find at MobilePC
come to us for a variety of reasons. Some are discontinued products in
perfect working condition, others are excess new products - surplus
units that are still new. We also sell demo units, products with
cosmetic blemishes, duplicate orders, canceled orders and systems that
have been returned because they didn't meet a customer's specific needs.

A Simple to Use Telescope with the Most Advanced Technology: This is the ideal telescope for the backyard astronomy enthusiast, especially if you have astrophotography in mind. Simply power up the telescope, choose the object you want to see on the handheld controller and the GPS computerized mount does the rest. Standard computer controlled mounts without GPS require you to align the telescope with the North Star and manually enter in your coordinates and the time. The GPS locator in this telescope mount means the telescope already knows its location and the current time anywhere in the world. You'll be soaring to the stars in seconds.

Top-of-the-line Large Aperture Reflector Telescope: With a large 150mm (6 inch) primary mirror and an astounding 1400mm focal length, this powerful telescope is the perfect high magnification scope for planetary and deep space astronomy. This telescope is ideal for backyard astronomy and is a great introductory telescope if you are serious about learning all about astronomy but want to avoid the hassle of combing the night sky for something cool to see. With its "short tube" design, this 6 inch scope packs a built-in corrector lens, that provides a longer focal length -- and that means huge magnifications. So, from your own backyard, you'll see tremendous heart pounding detail when viewing even the moon. With planets you can see the rings of Saturn, the polar caps on Mars and the Moons of Jupiter. In dark skies you can see distant nebulae and galaxies as well. See all these objects and more with just the push of a button.

Equatorial Tracking Mount for Smooth Tracking: The patented design of the iOptron SmartStar-A Dual Mount Alt-Azimuth & German Equatorial GPS Mount is the most unique mount on the market today. Keep in mind that the stars "rise" and "set" over the course of the night, just like the sun does. With the Equatorial mount option included with the SmartStar-A mount, this telescope can be aligned in a way so that it rotates through the night sky in a single sweeping arc (as opposed to a stair-step approach). This is a key feature for ultra-smooth celestial tracking, critical for long-exposure astrophotography. In addition, there are no "dead spots" -- so you can point your telescope anywhere above the horizon, whereas, other mounts block the telescope tube at certain points of rotation. This mount also comes standard with AC connection. An optional DC adapter is available so you can plug your telescope motor into your car if you're camping or at any remote location. The mount also accepts 8 AA cell batteries for use at home or in the field. (Batteries sold separately.)

Automatic GPS Computer Controlled Star Finding: The revolutionary GoToNova computerized control system is by far the most technologically advanced automated tracking system available on the market today. With a database of 80,000 celestial objects, including all of the most famous galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, not to mention the planets, you'll be able to enjoy star gazing with the simple push of a button. The GoToNova Controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD screen with more lines of content compared with the competition. Using the easy-to-use hand controller and its large LCD screen, you can easily set up your telescope and select where you want to go. The 32-channel GPS module is built-in for fully automated operation and alignment. Simply turn on the GoToNova Controller and the GPS module will automatically synchronize your telescope location and time with the GoToNova computerized control system.

Direct-to-PC Camera. The included camera uses a 1/2" CMOS imaging chip (the same kind used in regular digital cameras) and USB 2.0 to output 2048x1536 pixel images, 3 Megapixels of information. This is an optimal output for high-resolution video monitors and PC displays. Plus, with the USB 2.0 connection, your live video views refresh at rates as fast as 20 frames per second. Included with the camera is a comprehensive digital telescopy software editing suite. Compatible with Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7, the software outputs files in nearly every graphics format imaginable, including web standard JPEG, GIF and even PhotoShop .psd files. The software allows you to measure angles, add graphics and text, and do color corrections and contrast adjustments right on your PC screen. The camera also comes with a 3 year warranty, and the camera software comes with unlimited lifetime upgrades and support directly from the manufacturer.

Premium Optics and Equipment: This telescope comes with 2 medium power Plossl eyepieces with storage containers, and a Barlow 2x lens. These eyepieces are perfect for getting started on your deep-space and planetary excursions. Your telescope also comes with a dust-free cleaning cloth and a moon filter designed for reducing moon glare and making surface details more clear. The steel tripod is fully adjustable and allows even taller people to observe the stars without having to crouch down in an uncomfortable position. A handy accessory tray on the tripod makes it easy to keep track of extra eyepieces. Made of 1-inch heavy-duty stainless steel the tripod is sturdy yet elegant, and gives the user unparalleled stability during operation. Solid construction joints keep your mount locked securely.
