The Celestron C14 SCT OTA - CGE comes from a long line of Celestron's famous Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, ranging from 8" to 14". The largest size, C14, is Fastar compatible. Now available as OTA only, you can mix-and-match your telescope tube and mount and tripod set-up to get exactly what you're after for what you're passionate about.

With the 14" aperture and 3910mm focal length (f/11), the Celestron C14 SCT OTA - CGE is suitable for planetary imaging. If you're interested in DSO imaging, a Celestron Focal Reducer Lens is highly recommended for field correction and to offer a wider field of view.

Optical Performance

• Aperture: This C14 features a massive 14-inch (356mm) Schmidt-Cassegrain optical system, providing tremendous light-gathering power for resolving fine detail.

• Focal Length: An extremely long 3910mm focal length (f/11) makes this Cassegrain Reflecting Telescope the ultimate tool for achieving high magnification on solar system targets.

• Coatings: Celestron's premium StarBright XLT Coatings are applied to the optics of this Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope to maximize light transmission.

• Construction: The aluminum optical tube of the Celestron C14 ensures durability.

• Fastar Compatibility: This Celestron C14 OTA is Fastar compatible, allowing conversion to an ultra-fast f/2 imaging system with a separate lens assembly, greatly improving its deep-sky imaging versatility and making it one of the most flexible Cassegrain Telescopes.

Mount Compatibility

• This C14 SCT is equipped with a CGE Dovetail Rail. This wide, Losmandy-D style bar provides a secure connection to an appropriate high-capacity mount.

• The CGE standard ensures this C14 OTA is compatible with observatory-class equatorial mounts that can handle its significant size and weight.

Included Accessories

• 9x50 Finderscope: Helps in locating celestial objects with your Cassegrain Reflecting Telescope.

• Visual Back: Allows the Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope to accept standard diagonals and eyepieces.

• Star Diagonal: Provides a more comfortable 90-degree viewing angle, essential for using Cassegrain Telescopes for visual observation.
