Astrophotography with Vaonis smart telescopes.

This image is a composition of 12 live panoramas captured with Vespera over several nights, for a final resolution of 53 Mpx.

Astrophotography with classical telescope rigs is a very challenging hobby.

It requires extensive knowledge and significant investment of time and effort before getting decent results. You have to deal with cumbersome set-ups, a steep learning curve and many technical issues.

This time is over.

By designing all-in-one telescopes that integrate advanced technologies,Vaonis has streamlined the astrophotography processby automating all the tedious procedures. Nowyou can get great images right from the start and progress faster.It's time for fun and creativity!

High definition images.

With high definition sensors and the live panorama mode, get images up to 50 Mpx*. No other smart telescope come even close to this.

Automatic tracking.

Never worry about complex auto-guiding systems again. Vespera and Stellina automatically perform plate solving to ensure accurate tracking.

Live Stacking.

Skip the tedious manual stacking stage. Vespera and Stellina automatically reject bad images and stack the good ones to provide a ready-to-post processed image.

Panorama mode with dithering.

Expand the field of view of the smart telescope up to twice the native one. It comes with auto- dithering to cancel out hot pixels and fix pattern noise.

Live auto-focus.

Get consistently sharp stars even when temperature changes. Vaonis instruments are the only ones equipped with a engine ensuring automatic focusing even during observation.

RAW files for manual processing.

Save individual sub images in FITS format to run your own manual stacking or operate the 16 bits uncompresed alredy-stacked TIFF file.

Calibration frames.

With Expert mode, capture dark frames to perform custom manual processing. You can even create darks library you will be able to re-use

Camera manual settings.

Manually set time exposure and sensor gain to get the best results according to your observation conditions.

Observations programming.

Enjoy captures all night long. Plan a serie of observations and let your Vaonis telescope run them for you. Wake up in the moring with fresh new images.
