The NEW LX90 ACF and SCT Get ready to tour of the most spectacular sights in the universe with the most successful GOTO telescope series in the world. With all the features of the legendary LX90 Schmidt-Cassegrain plus the new ACF range, the new LX90s has it all.

When it comes to industry-leading American-made optics, depth of features, and value for your money, the LX90ACF and SCT is the best Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope you can find.

Features:

Meade patented alignment and GPS system - Telescopes with Meade´s aclaimed alignment system. They are smart scopes that know the night sky right out of the box. The telescope picks two fail-proof alignment stars for you. Just center them to fine tune your alignment and the wonders of the universe are at your fingertips.

DIFFRACTION-LIMITED MEADE ACF AND SCHMIDT-CASSEGRAIN OPTICS Meade individually figures their water-white corrector lenses and Pyrex® primary and secondary mirrors for superior light transmission, temperature stability, smoothness and correction.

OVERSIZED PRIMARY MIRROR - Only Meade manufactures their primary mirrors in diameters larger than their listed aperture (e.g. the diameter of the 8" LX90´s primary mirror is actually 8.25").This additional 1/4" yields a wider, fully illuminated field-of-view, and allows you to see the light other telescopes leave behind.

Slew Speed - The LX90GPS slews (moves) from star to star at 7 degrees per second.That is more than twice as fast as the competition.This means that over the course of an evening, a Meade LX90 ACF of SCT will show you two to three times more objects.

RIGID CAST ALUMINUM FORK MOUNT - The Meade LX90's Optical Tube Assembly is mounted on two sturdy fork arms giving you a rock solid platform for astrophotography.

LX200TM - SERIES TRIPOD - The LX90 telescopes comes standard with the same sturdy field tripod as the LX200R series telescope.

SMART DRIVETM - Meade´s AutoStar® provides Periodic Error Correction (in polar mode). Over the course of one or more training periods your LX90 will minimize guiding corrections during long exposure astrophotography.

AUTOSTAR CONTROLLER - Meade´s AutoStar® can be updated after purchase. Log on to www.meade.com to download software upgrades, guided tours and timely objects like comets, satellites and new discoveries - Free! Keep your AutoStar up-to-date, and your LX90 will grow with you for years to come.

8 X 50 VIEWFINDER - Quickly and easily locate and center deep sky objects.
