ZWO

With its 50 mm aperture, superb optics and four observation modes, the ZWO Seestar Smart Telescope S50 Pro AP50/260 is the ideal companion for anyone keen to explore the night sky. Packed with thoughtful upgrades, it's the most capable Seestar yet – small enough to take anywhere, but built with the kind of technology usually reserved for serious professional setups.Three steps to your first shot of spaceSet up the tripod, open the app, tap your target – and that's it. The S50 Pro takes care of alignment, focusing and tracking on its own, so within minutes you're already looking at stunning shots of the night sky right there on your screen. What used to be a fiddly, technical hobby is now something anyone can pick up, no experience needed.Four modes, one telescopeWhether you're after deep-sky objects or dramatic landscapes, the four shooting modes – Stargazing, Milky Way, Solar System and Scenery – have you covered. Capture stunning celestial objects with the same ease as birds or distant scenery, opening up all kinds of possibilities well beyond the night sky. Pop on the included solar filter and you can even get striking shots and videos of sunspots, solar transits and eclipses.50 mm aperture: more light, more detailThe 50 mm aperture gathers nearly three times as much light as a 30 mm lens, giving you noticeably sharper optical resolution. Paired with a powerful 8.3 MP sensor, the S50 Pro picks out the finest details in distant objects – from subtle features in deep-sky targets to the rugged texture of the Moon's surface. And thanks to its folded optical design, all this power comes in a body that's still compact and easy to carry.4K dual camera: two lenses working togetherThe S50 Pro's telephoto and wide-angle cameras work in tandem, both shooting in 4K UHD. The telephoto lens picks out fine detail with a 2.8° field of view, while the wide-angle camera takes in the whole star field at 63° – giving you the best of both worlds, from precise deep-sky shots to sweeping wide-angle astro images.Mosaic stitching for the bigger pictureThe mosaic feature stitches together several telephoto shots into one seamless image, so you get a wider view without losing detail – all in a single high-resolution photo of up to 8K. Perfect for capturing large objects in full.4-element apochromatic lensA four-element apo lens with ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass keeps chromatic aberration to a minimum, giving you sharp, round stars against a clean, neutral black sky – for images that are crisp, clear and beautifully balanced.Triple filter systemThe astronomical light-pollution filter cuts through interference from moonlight and city lights, the dark-frame filter removes noise from long exposures, and the IR-cut filter blocks infrared interference for cleaner shots overall.A huge object database, all at your fingertipsPick a target from a database of over 80,000 deep-sky objects and more than 600,000 stars, then just hit GOTO. The S50 Pro finds, tracks and photographs it automatically, handing you a polished cosmic image in just a few minutes.Two worlds, one sharp imageThe S50 Pro automatically picks out the foreground landscape, locks it in place, and processes it separately from the sky above – and you can set how long this landscape lock lasts. While the stars stay pin-sharp thanks to precise tracking, the landscape below remains crisp and natural, giving you beautifully composed astro-landscape shots.Milky Way shots and star trails, made easyCapturing our own galaxy has never been simpler with this smart telescope. Star trails are just as effortless too – the S50 Pro turns long-exposure sequences into dynamic videos that beautifully capture the sky's movement overnight.Editing made simpleGet a finished image in seconds, or dive in and fine-tune it yourself. Star reduction, star removal, cropping, brightness, contrast, noise reduction, saturation and more are all built in, so you can bring out the best in every shot in just a few taps.Plan mode: let it run all nightSet up a full shooting plan in the app in just a few taps, then leave it to work through the night. The S50 Pro will automatically move between targets, capturing several celestial objects in a single session with no input needed from you.Built to go the distanceA bigger 10,000 mAh battery means up to 9 hours of stargazing per charge – plenty of time to make the most of a clear night.Open interfaces for the more advanced astronomerThe S50 Pro supports the open ASCOM Alpaca protocol, so it plays nicely with third-party astronomy software like N.I.N.A. – great for automated routines and more advanced imaging workflows. With optional accessories, you can even switch to equatorial mode, which compensates for the Earth's rotation and allows for longer exposures.FEATURESFully automatic smart telescope for night, landscape and solar observation4-element apochromatic refractor with ED glassLens diameter: 50 mm, focal length: 260 mm4K dual-camera system: telephoto (2.8° field of view), wide-angle (63° field of view)Sensors: OmniVision OS08B10 (telephoto); IMX586 (wide-angle)Resolution: 2160 x 3840 px (8.3 MP)Wide field of view with smart mosaic mode for the Milky Way and large-scale objectsOptic type: 4-element apochromatic refractorAutomatic image stacking for sharper, more detailed shots straight out of the boxLive view for real-time observation and photography4 shooting modes covering deep sky, solar system, Milky Way and landscape (wide-angle, close-up, timelapse and star trail shots)Solar filter included for solar observationControlled via an intuitive app (iOS/Android)Smart noise reductionBuilt-in filters, great for astrophotography even from the cityCompact, lightweight design built for portabilityBuilt-in Wi-FiHigh optical resolution for sharp, detailed astrophotographyShare your images straight to social media128 GB of built-in storageConnectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFCBuilt-in battery, 10,000 mAh, up to 9 hours of runtimeSCOPE OF DELIVERYSeestar S50 ProCarry caseSolar filterUSB-C cableTripodStickersInstruction manual

There has never been an easier way to capture stunning astro images: The ZWO Seestar S30 Pro Smart Telescope AP30/160 builds on the celebrated Seestar lineage with a bold step forward. Weighing just 1.65 kg, it is just as compact and travel-friendly as its predecessor – but now packs an entirely new dual-camera optical system that takes astrophotography to a whole new level. Calibration, object acquisition, capture, stacking – the S30 Pro handles the lot, automatically. Whether you're settled on the sofa, stretched out in the garden, or perched at your favourite dark-sky spot, all you need to do is sit back and drink in the universe. Dual-camera with 4K – a genuine leap forward ZWO has raised the bar significantly with the S30 Pro. The telephoto camera is built around the Sony IMX585 sensor in the large 1/1.2″ format, covering a 4.6° field of view, while the wide-angle camera pairs the IMX586 sensor with a sweeping 63° field of view. The telephoto sensor alone is four times the size of the one found in the original S30 – which translates directly into more gathered light, cleaner images, and finer detail on even the faintest, most remote objects. A 4-element apochromatic lens with a 160 mm focal length and ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass renders colours more faithfully and images more crisply than the 3-element design of the previous model. The autofocus takes care of itself, and an integrated triple filter system – dark-field filter, UV/IR cut filter, and a light pollution filter optimised for OIII and H-Alpha – means you can get outstanding results even from the middle of a city. A built-in dew heater keeps the optics clear on damp nights, so nothing stands between you and the stars. Four capture modes – perfectly tuned for every subject The S30 Pro offers four dedicated capture modes, each of which automatically dials in the right settings for the job:In Stargazing mode, galaxies, nebulae, star clusters and more are yours to explore. Solar System mode is fine-tuned for planets and the Sun – always used with the included solar filter, of course. The brand-new Milky Way & Star Trails mode lets you create breathtaking Milky Way panoramas, star trails, time-lapses, and Milky Way mosaics at the press of a button. Scenery mode turns the S30 Pro into a capable ultra-telephoto camera during the day.For newcomers, it really is as simple as picking a mode and letting the telescope do the rest. Smart app control with over 80,000 celestial objects at your fingertips The Seestar app (iOS/Android) is clean, intuitive, and puts complete control of the telescope in the palm of your hand. One tap is all it takes for the GoTo system to swing the optics precisely onto your chosen target – drawn from a database of over 80,000 deep-sky objects and 600,000 stars, complete with recommendations via the "Tonight's Best" feature. The smart constellation recognition identifies star patterns in your field of view in real time, or navigates straight to a constellation of your choosing. The Plan mode lets you schedule an entire imaging session in advance: the S30 Pro will search, track, and photograph all by itself – even long after you've turned in for the night. Cloud cover forecasts, moon phase data and visibility information all help you pick the best possible moment to observe. 8K mosaics, advanced image processing and 128 GB of onboard storage The Seestar S30 Pro can automatically assemble 8K Milky Way mosaics – portrait or landscape orientation, triggered with a single tap. The telescope works through a pre-calculated grid of frames and stitches everything together seamlessly. The new Freeze the Ground feature cleverly separates the foreground from the sky: your landscape stays crisp and natural while the stars are stacked without any trailing – with no manual effort whatsoever. Automatic noise reduction and Dynamic Background Extraction (DBE) work together to smooth out uneven backgrounds and draw out fine detail, entirely without any input from you. Images are saved in JPEG or FITS format; videos in MP4 or AVI. With 128 GB of internal storage, there is plenty of headroom for even the longest of nights. Something for everyone – from first-timers to seasoned imagers The Seestar S30 Pro is built so that anyone can achieve great results straight out of the box – no prior knowledge required. The automatic modes and guided app walk you through everything. For those who want to go deeper, the S30 Pro is equally at home as a serious imaging tool: individual frames can be saved in FITS format and taken into your post-processing software of choice. The S30 Pro also supports the open ASCOM Alpaca protocol and works with popular astrophotography platforms such as NINA. With optional accessories, an equatorial mode is available too, compensating for the Earth's rotation and opening the door to longer exposures. Equally impressive in broad daylight The S30 Pro is no one-trick pony. By day, it doubles as a versatile camera with both wide-angle and telephoto capability in a single, compact body – perfect for birdwatching, landscape photography, and time-lapse work. Moving subjects – wildlife, trains, aircraft – are tracked automatically and captured in sharp detail. Photo, video, and time-lapse are all on offer in 4K Ultra HD. The ZWO Seestar S30 Pro AP30/160 is quite simply one of the finest smart telescopes on the market today – and the most enjoyable way to make breathtaking astro images your new normal.
