## Description

Combine top-of-the-line performance with unlimited versatility and you have the CPC Deluxe 800HD. From a casual night of backyard observing to serious astroimaging at a dark sky location, the CPC Deluxe HD is a customer favorite for any application. The CPC/CPC Deluxe family is also the telescope of choice for NASA (a CPC 925 is currently deployed aboard the International Space Station) and astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who uses a CPC Deluxe 1100HD at his home in Cambridge, UK. Celestron’s Best Optics.What makes the view through a CPC Deluxe HD unforgettable? It all starts with our proprietary EdgeHD optical system. This unique design corrects for both coma and field curvature, providing aberration-free images and pinpoint stars across the largest imaging sensors and all the way to the edge of the widest eyepieces. All EdgeHD systems include our StarBright XLT coatings on all optical surfaces for brighter images and increased light transmission. Plus, every EdgeHD optical tube is Fastar compatible. Simply remove the secondary mirror and attach a third party lens assembly and you’re ready to image the night sky at ultra-fast f/2. Ultimate Versatility.Customers and reviewers have hailed the CPC Deluxe an all-around top performer, equally well suited to a star party or a university astronomy course. The beefy dual fork arm mount anchors the telescope for ultra-precise tracking, but weighs just 43 lbs and includes rugged carrying handles to make setup quick and easy.As soon as you turn on your CPC Deluxe HD, you’ll be guided through our simple SkyAlign procedure. The telescope walks you through centering any three bright objects in the eyepiece. From there, it’s ready to locate and track more than 40,000 celestial objects.To customize your experience under the stars, CPC Deluxe HD is compatible with all of Celestron’s latest accessories. Add StarSense AutoAlign and your CPC will align itself in under 3 minutes. Or add the SkyQ Link 2 WiFi Module and control your telescope using a smartphone or tablet. With this much versatility, the CPC Deluxe HD is a telescope that will serve you well for years to come, no matter what you choose to do with the hobby—including astroimaging. Built with Imaging in Mind. Most altazimuth telescopes are designed primarily for visual use, but not the CPC Deluxe HD. It offers all the same high-end features you’ll find on our German equatorial mounts. Out of the box, your CPC Deluxe can track accurately for up to 30 seconds without adding a wedge, thanks to a reengineered drive train with a 6-inch brass gear, stainless steel worm gear, and both steel and nylon ball bearings.If you’ll be doing longer exposure astrophotography, adding the HD Pro Wedge turns this telescope into an astroimager’s dream setup. With a wedge, you can take advantage of the All Star Polar Alignment procedure, which has you polar aligned in just minutes. You can also train your mount to be even more accurate with Permanently Programmable Periodic Error Correction. Finally, your CPC tracks smoothly through the meridian without doing a meridian flip, enabling you to capture objects in the best part of the night sky.

Review: Outstanding and serious telescope! In my opinion, it's the "best bang for your buck" Aplanatic Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope on the market. Before I purchased this model and brand, I painstakingly researched reviews and opinions from buyers and amateur astronomers for months. Since this was my first Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (SCT), I wanted to get it right the first time because of the cost. In the past, I was into refractor telescopes. I began as a Meade fan, but I soon changed into a Celestron stargazer. In sum, I came up with a plethora of notes that swayed me to Celestron and the 8 inch EdgeHD model. I've included ten of those notes below from my research. 1. The telescope warranty is two years for Celestron's Schmidt-Cassegrain models as opposed to Meade's one year guarantee. 2. Celestron's customer service appears to be superior to Meade's support. Celestron is also based in California. Easy access if worse comes to worse for support. 3. Celestron has fantastic quality. Upon examining this scope, it was better than many other brands that I have had the opportunity to view. 4. EdgeHD optics beats Meade's Advanced Coma Free system. You can refer to side-by-side comparison data on the web. EdgeHD optics are crystal clear to the edge of the field of view (FOV) where Meade's LX200 series are ever-so-slightly fuzzy. There's plenty of info on the web to back this up as well as personal observations. Whether you like astrophotography or not, the optics were worth the extra money. I'm not into astrophotography, but if I change my mind in the future, I have the SCT to do it. Besides, the EdgeHD model is designed for affordable performance. A "dark sky" rules, but so does optics for deep space viewing. Thus, the EdgeHD in the 8 inch SCT model gives me a high performance FOV of planets and deep space objects. Of course, a good eyepiece matters too. 5. The CPC HD 800 has a better tripod (tray) than the regular Celestron CPC series model. It's easy to set up and take down, extremely stable, adjustable, and very well made. 6. Weight is everything. I chose an 8 inch SCT because of its manageability. More scope means more weight. 7. Celestron's battery system for powering the CPC HD 800 is superior to Meade's small 8 battery system. The CPC can access your car's battery supply via a cigarette lighter (12v) outlet, but I found that unrealistic. Thus, an exterior Celestron battery pack is necessary, which adds to an extra expense. Moreover, the battery pack needs periodic charging cycles when not in use. Still, the extra power was a better choice, and the battery pack can be used in emergencies because of the onboard fixed flashlights. 8. The worm drive is precise and strong in the Alt-Azimuth mount. There's no slop in the system. In addition, backlash is adjustable. 9. Scope controls are smooth and precise. There appears to be a slight problem in some brands, but not Celestron. 10. NexStar+ (upgrade) hand control with GPS is super easy to use on the Celestron. The CPC is very easy to align with multiple methods available, and the control and the tracking is "dead-on" every time. Uranus, Neptune, Andromeda Galaxy (M31), and faint objects were all at or near dead center. Meade's control, although improving, is more cumbersome to use via more scrolling and periodically insufficient displayed info/data. The NexStar+ layout is better from a technical point of view. The CPC HD 800 is affordable for a big, serious instrument when compared to other brands with similar features. It packs so many professional elements. Though, you should understand that this is your initial investment as other equipment may follow. After two months, I purchased a 2 inch star diagonal (standard 1 1/4 inch was included) and higher quality eyepieces that added significantly to the overall cost. Still, the "outcome was worth the income." All-in-all, when it comes to brands, we can debate Celestron and Meade telescopes like Chevrolet and Ford cars/trucks, but the bottom line is "what works for you." Meade as well as other companies build great telescopes. Nevertheless, it is my opinion, as an amateur astronomer, that Celestron builds a better scope. I've come to the conclusion that many colleges carry Meade telescopes because they are a little less pricey. However, their mechanical reliability and quality aren't up to Celestron's level. Of course, that's my opinion too!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the 800 portable? all fit in one box? I live in an apartment with no clear access to night sky. If not any recommendations what similar to buy?**
A: In answer to your question, define "Portable." I know nothing about you or your ability to carry objects. What is 'manageable' to me may be way too much for you. Go to the Amazon.com AD and look at the weight of the telescope and tripod stand separately. You should be able to carry one of them at a time to your selected location. There is a case available for the 800, so that will make carrying it a little easier.  I'm 71 years old and have the Celestron 11" SCT - it weighs about 70 lbs all by itself and is all I can barely manage.  When I was young, I had a refractor with a 4" objective that I used to set up on the apartment roof while attending school at Arizona State Univ. Older and wiser now, I purchase everything with "Wheels" and I have the custom 3-arm wheeled caddy for my Celestron so no worries about lifting anything.

**Q: what are the boxes dimensions? In the item description mentioned just one box, is it true?**
A: I don't remember exact dimensions, but it's huge. There are TWO boxes. Telescope and the Tripod in another one. Regards!

**Q: Can you hook up the telescope to a computer and view on the screen?**
A: Sure, you’ll need a camera, USB cable connection (or RDP) and capture software (Like Sharpcap). So you can use telescope both visually & astro photographically.

**Q: Does this come with a CD?**
A: No, CD with the unit just manuals.  We site has some down loads and UTube is a greate resource.

*by A***R on 19 July 2019*

Hated go-to scopes until now; user friendly built in gps gets this scope on target fast. Set up is quick, optics are SUPERB!! Celestron customer support is intelligent and streamlined - had a missing part to me with minimum hassle. I bought a li-ion power supply and velcro'd it unobtrusively to the base assembly. Can also be used manually, just unlock the clutches. Maxbrght binoviewer and 23mm Svbony eyepieces make a killer pairing with high point scientific 2" diagonal for astoundingly satisfying images of moon, globular clusters, doubles, whatever there is to see. The apochromatic qualities of this system are praiseworthy. I could have saved money had I bought a C8 years ago, but this Edge 800 HD was worth the wait.
