By selecting very precisely the wavelengths of Hydrogen Alpha (H-alpha) and Oxygen III (O-III), found mainly in nebulae, the DB filter increases the contrast between the Stellar object and the sky background. Thus, its use makes it possible to obtain a higher-quality image, with sharper stars and finer details.

With CovalENS,
Bring your photos of the Universe too the next level.

Call it mosaic mode, panorama mode or field expansion, CovalENS is the first ever technology, available exclusively on Vaonis smart telescopes that let you capture images with a wider field of view than the native one of your smart telescope. Live and full automatic.

Choose your favorite framing.

The orientation of objects in the image is no more dependant of the orientation of the camera, your mount type or the position of the object in the sky. You are free to choose the perfect composition for your astrophotography masterpiece.

An innovative and intelligent algorithm that delivers the best image quality.

CovalENS benefits from a process used by experienced astrophotographers, called dithering. It dramatically improves the quality of images by cancelling out hot pixels, fixing pattern noise and more. The stacking process operates simultaneously so you end up with an image file ready for post-processing. Calibration frames are no more required.
