The Celestron C14-A-XLT (CGE) Optical Tube Assembly is a world-class instrument that delivers detailed views of deep sky objects. The C14 packs serious light gathering ability into its durable aluminum optical tube, making it an ideal instrument for serious astrophotography and providing high-contrast views even at very high magnifications. The proprietary StarBright XLT optical coatings dramatically increase transmission to up to 97.4% on the Schmidt corrector lenses, while Fastar compatibility enables exposures 25 times shorter than at the native f/11 focus, ideal for rapid astrophotography.
