Key Features
- 150mm Schmidt-Cassegrain OTA
- 1500mm Focal Length, f/10 Focal Ratio
- StarBright XLT Optical Coating System
- Wireless Control with iOS/Android App
The NexStar Evolution 6 150mm Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope from Celestron is a powerful, portable, versatile, and user-friendly telescope that can be used for observing everything from the Moon and planets to deep-sky objects like galaxies and nebulae. Using Celestron's proprietary StarBright XLT multi-coating system, light transmission is increased throughout the entire optical path with antireflection multicoated lenses, highly reflective multicoated mirrors, and four-element rare-earth glass. While the focal ratio is a slow f/10, the scope's precision tracking system allows it to be a competent astrophotography/imaging platform for the Moon and planets.

What is the AFOV on the included eyepieces?
What is the AFOV on the included eyepieces?
The 40mm eyepiece has a 43 degree AFOV due to the field stop limit on the inside of the 1.25" barrel. The 13mm eyepiece has a 52 degree AFOV which is normal for a Plossl eyepiece.

I just received my NexStar 6 Evolution and it appears there are several noticeable particles on the interior mirrors within the OTA. Is this common with new scopes or did I get a bad / poorly sealed version?
While our telescopes are assembled and cleaned at the factory, very tiny dust particles may settle on optical surfaces as components are not installed in a dust free lab. However, the views will not be affected. Please contact B&H for you would like an exchange or refund.

question
Do you need to use a Wedge ( Celestron HD Pro Wedge) for the scope to track an object?
No, this scope has built-in GoTo and will track everything from the Moon, to planets, to deep-sky objects without the need to purchase any additional hardware. The Pro-Wedge converts the Alt-Azimuth mount into a rough polar alignment mount with extends the scope's ability to track in Right Ascension - Declination which is superior for very long exposure astrophotography. However the Wedge is not required to track objects with this scope in standard Alt-Az mode.
