miniGuideScope - A
n ultra lightweight guide scope for QHY5-II Series
When the pixels of a guide camera becomes small and QE becomes high, you may not need a big guide scope. The small pixels can detect the guide error in a short focal length. When the focal lenth is reduced, the FOV becomes bigger. You can find the bright guide star very easy.
QHYCCD's new miniGuideScope is just based this idea. QHY5L-II has 74% high QE, 4 electron readout noise and 3.75um small pixels. This camera is idea for the short focal guide scope. miniGuideScope is a f=130mm Diameter=30mm ultra small telescope with F4.3 ratio. It has no complex focal adjust system. Just rotate the front part focuser it can get fine focal adjustment. There is a locker to fix the focuser position.When it get focus you can lock it and no need focus again in future.
The miniGuideScope has sharp star point than the industry long focal lens.
Guide Camera not included.

Mr.
This is a nice little guide scope. Well made, simple, effective. This is the second one I have acquired. I have tested up to 1500mm focal length and it produces pin point stars. Very light weight as well. Very pleased with both performance and form.

QHY mini guidescope
Mini scope arrived next day after ordering. It is very high quality construction and I was able to set it up easily. I am using it with a QHY5III 462 camera and had no problems getting the two to go together. I have been able to view images thru the assembly but have not been able to use the system for autoguiding yet - too cloudy and cold.
