Celestron StarPointer Pro viewfinder

Celestron StarPointer Pro viewfinder

The Celestron StarPointer Pro is a finder designed for stargazing, which helps you locate objects in the night sky and centre them in your telescope’s field of view quickly. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced amateur astronomers, and attaches to a telescope via a dovetail mount. See also our other telescopes and astronomy equipment.

Two circles instead of a red dot

Traditional red-dot sights were originally developed for shooting sports, and their dot can easily obscure a dim target. The StarPointer Pro projects two circular LED reticles into the field of view, leaving the target visible in the centre. The circles can also be used to help estimate distances in the sky.

Main features

• Two circular LED hair crosshairs keep the target visible whilst aiming.
• Circles can be used to measure the distances between objects in the sky.
• The 40 mm diameter lens offers a wide field of view.
• A brighter LED light improves visibility even during the day.
• The dovetail joint is tightened using a thumb screw, without the need for tools.
• Included are four mounting brackets for large and small Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, as well as other small telescopes.
