images, horizontal projection, custom sky chart printing, zoom
capability and more! A fun, useful and educational product. PC

Dual Axis Drive System - #93523
This drive motor, with drive corrector capabilities, is designed for
Celestron’s CG-5 Equatorial telescope mount. It precisely controls
the telescope’s tracking speed during timed exposures astrophotog-
raphy of celestial objects, producing the best possible image sharp-
ness. This precision, state-of-the-art DC motor drive operates on a 9
volt battery. The hand controller module is very compact and fits easily in the
palm of your hand. Motors for both axes are included, along with brackets,
clutches and hardware.
Erect Image Diagonal (#94112-A) - This accessory is an Amici prism
arrangement that allows you to look into the telescope at a 45° angle with
images that are oriented properly (upright and correct from left-to-right). It is
useful for daytime, terrestrial viewing.
Eyepieces - Like telescopes, eyepieces come in a variety of designs. Each
design has its own advantages and disadvantages. For the 1-1/4" barrel
diameter there are four different eyepiece designs available.
• Super Modified Achromatic (SMA) Eyepieces:
The SMA design is an improved version of the Kellner eyepiece.
SMAs are very good, economical, general purpose eyepieces that
deliver a wide apparent field, good color correction and an excellent
image at the center of the field of view. Celestron offers SMA
eyepieces in the following focal lengths: 6mm, 10mm, 12mm,17mm
and 25mm.
• Plössl - Plössl eyepieces have a 4-element lens designed for low-
to-high power observing. The Plössls offer razor sharp views across
the entire field, even at the edges! In the 1-1/4" barrel diameter, they
are available in the following focal lengths: 6.3mm, 7.5mm, 10mm,
12.5mm, 17mm, 20mm, 26mm, 32mm and 40mm.
• Ultima - Ultima is not really a design, but a trade name for our 5-element,
wide field eyepieces. They are available in the following focal lengths:
5mm, 7.5mm, 12.5mm, 18mm, 30mm, 35mm, and 42mm. These
eyepieces are all parfocal. The 35mm Ultima gives the widest possible
field of view with a 1-1/4" diagonal.
