Optional Accessories

A wide assortment of professional Meade accessories is available for the StarNavigator telescopes. The premium quality of these accessories is well suited to the quality of the instrument itself. Consult meade.com for complete details on these and other accessories.

Eyepieces: For higher and lower magnifications, Meade Series 4000 Super Plössl (SP) yield high-resolution imaging with all StarNavigator telescope models. A useful selection includes the SP 15 mm and SP 12.4 mm eyepieces.

#126 2x Barlow Lens (1.25"/3 cm): Doubles each eyepiece power while maintaining excellent image corrections. For example, a 9 mm eyepiece used with the StarNavigator114 yields a power of 111X; when used in conjunction with the #126 Barlow lens, the same eyepiece yields 222X.

#928 45° Erecting Prism: The 90° diagonal provided with StarNavigator refractors results in upright-but-reversed viewing of land subjects. The #928 45° Erecting Prism (1.25"/3 cm) orients the image correctly in terrestrial applications and results in a comfortable 45° viewing angle. For use with refractors only.

Camera Adapter: StarNavigator telescopes may be used for through-the-telescope photography of the Moon and planets or for terrestrial objects. For eyepiece-projection photography with any of these telescopes, use the Basic Camera Adapter (1.25"/3 cm).

#505 AstroFinder™ Software and Cable Connector Kit: Displays more than 15,000 celestial wonders – galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, stars, and planets – on your PC, enabling even the beginner to locate and identify objects to observe with the telescope or to print out star charts for use in observing sessions. Operates with any Windows™-based personal computer. The Cable Connector Kit permits connection of any StarNavigator telescope model, Audiostar, and PC, for downloading of new software to Audiostar or for updating of Earth satellite or other celestial object positions. This kit is included with each AstroFinder Software package.

Electronic Eyepiece™: Now everyone can easily share views from an eyepiece – of the Moon, planets, stars, and land objects – on a television screen and allows for direct connection to monitors, VCRs, and camcorders. This easy-to-set up and easy-to-use monochrome CMOS imager offers built-in contrast control adjustment for varying astronomical and terrestrial lighting conditions.

The AutoStar Suite with Meade LPI™ (Lunar Planetary Imager) turns your StarNavigator telescope, AudioStar and PC into an even more powerful and easy-to-use astronomical instrument. Capture great images of the the Moon, planets, and brighter deep-sky objects, plus terrestrial targets the first time out. With Magic Eye software-assisted focusing, the AutoStar Suite Software includes imaging and planetarium tools. Includes a cable to connect your telescope to your PC.

Looking at or near the Sun will cause irreversible damage to your eye. Do not point this telescope at or near the Sun. Do not look through the telescope as it is moving.
