QHY Guide Scope

While it is optimized for the QHY5 series, the included C/CS mount adapter allows it to work with many other cameras that utilize a standard C or CS mount. You should verify your camera's back-focus requirements to ensure it can reach focus with this specific scope.

The twist-style focuser is designed for quick, incremental adjustments without rotating the camera sensor itself. This is particularly helpful for maintaining your framing while fine-tuning your guide star focus.

At only 0.25 lbs, this is an exceptionally lightweight solution. It is designed specifically to minimize the load on your mount and reduce the risk of flexure in portable astrophotography setups.

The fast f/4.3 focal ratio gathers light quickly, which makes it much easier to find suitable guide stars in the field of view. This is a significant advantage when imaging in areas of the sky with fewer bright stars.

The QHY Mini Guide Scope is designed as a compact, all-in-one unit. It typically mounts directly to standard finder shoes found on most telescopes, eliminating the need for bulky, heavy mounting rings.
