New member of the Celestron NexStar Evolution family

March 25 2024, Stefan Taube

The popular Nexstar Evolution telescopes from Celestron have a new addition: It’s a five inch telescope!

The NexStar Evolution 5 is even more compact and less expensive than the other models in this series. However, it has everything that characterises a NexStar Evolution telescope:

  • High-quality optics in a Schmidt-Cassegrain design. This design is compact, closed and very easy to use. The long focal length is ideal for observing and photographing the moon and planets.
  • The telescope is equipped with motors and computer control (“GoTo”). This means that even beginners can find all attractive celestial objects.
  • The telescope can be controlled with the hand controller or via smartphone and the SkyPortal app from Celestron. To do this, the telescope generates a Wi-Fi signal so that you can connect your smartphone to the telescope.
  • The NexStar-Evolution has an integrated lithium iron phosphate battery (LiFePO4) with a battery life of approx. 10 hours.
  • The telescope can be disassembled into three parts. This makes it easy to transport and fits in any car boot.

You can find the NexStar Evolution 5 and all other models here in the shop.

A REALLY GOOD OFFER: 30% DISCOUNT ON KAHLES THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS!

March 8 2024, Stefan Rieger

Kahles Helia TI+ Offer

Especially when hunting wild boar at night, thermal imaging cameras are an accessory that no hunter would want to miss these days. Moreover, a thermal imaging camera can also highly support you in searching other animals, like fawns in the grass, hares and rabbits in the field or birds in the bushes.

For all those who are not yet equipped or do already have an outdated device, we can currently make a great offer!
The Kahles Helia TI 18+ and TI35+ Thermal Imaging cameras for € 1980! This means more than 30% discount compared to the former recommended retail price of € 2950.

Both models have high-resolution thermal sensors with 640×512, a pixel size of 12µm and a temperature resolution of < 20 Millikelvin. They differ in the lens used and therefore in their magnification, field of view and intended use.

The Kahles HELIA TI18+ has a focal length of 17.5mm and a field of view of 44m/100m, making it the expert for forest hunters. The Kahles HELIA TI35+ offers 35mm and a 2x basic magnification. The field of view is 22m/100m and the maximum range is over 2400 meters. This makes it an all-rounder for forest and field hunting.

Go for it! This great offer is valid until July 30th, 2024!
