The NEW LX90-ACF™ can do more than track satellites. It talks to them
as well. Turn it on and the built-in Sony®
GPS sensor immediately determines your precise date, time and
location. AutoAlign™ then uses this info to align your scope
for a tour of the most spectacular sights in the universe.
With all the features of the legendary LX90 Schmidt-Cassegrain plus
the ability to communicate to satellites, the new LX90GPS now has it
all. When it comes to industry-leading American-made optics,
depth of features, and value for your dollar, the LX90-ACF is the
best Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope you can find that can find itself.
Patented Level-North Technology:
Patented Level-North Technology (LNT) with electronic level sensor,
electronic magnetic north sensor, and high-precision clock.
Diffraction-Limited Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain
Optics: Only Meade individually figures their water-white corrector
lenses and Pyrex® primary and secondary mirrors for superior light
transmission, temperature stability, smoothness, and correction.
Oversized Primary Mirror: Only Meade
manufactures their primary mirrors in diameters larger than their listed
aperture (e.g. the diameter of the 8: LX90's primary mirror is actually
8.25".) This additional 1/4" yields a wider, fully illuminated
field-of-view, and allows you to see the light other telescopes leave behind.
Rigid Cast Aluminum Fork Mount: The
Meade LX90's Optical Tube Assembly is mounted on two sturdy fork arms, giving
you a rock solid platform for astrophotography.
LX200™ Series Tripod: The LX90
comes standard with the same sturdy field tripod as the LX200GPS series
telescope.
Smart Drive™: Only Meade's
AutoStar provides Periodic Error Correction (in polar mode). Over the
course of one or more training periods, your LX90 will minimize guiding
corrections during long exposure astrophotography.
AutoStar Controller: Only Meade's
AutoStar can be updated after purchase. Log on to www.meade.com
to download software upgrades, guided tours, and timely objects like comets,
satellites, and new discoveries--Free! Keep your AutoStar up-to-date, and
your LX90 will grow with you for years to come.
SmartFinder™ (Red Dot) and 8x50
Viewfinder: Quickly and easily locate and center deep sky objects.
Autostar Suite™ Astronomer's Edition
Software: is an easy-to-use planetarium software that allows you to see
what's in the sky tonight. Plan observing sessions, print star charts, and
even control your telescope all from your PC.
