Key Features
- Adjustable 12.5mm Prism
- Fixed-Orientation Helical Focuser
- Includes M42/M48 Adapters/Spacers
The Off-Axis Guider from Celestron is an astrophotography accessory used to compensate for tracking errors and align the focal planes of an imaging camera and autoguider. The 12.5mm adjustable prism is capable of transmitting brighter guide stars by moving closer to the center of the telescope's focal plane (without entering the imaging camera's field of view), which is especially useful when using high-magnification optical tubes. A fixed-orientation helical focuser with 8mm travel distance enables precise focus adjustments without changing the autoguider camera alignment as well as eliminates time-consuming guess work when focusing an image onto the imaging camera and autoguider sensors. An included set of male/female adapters and spacers allows the Off-Axis Guider to be mounted with common telescope-camera configurations; including DSLRs, Nightscape CCD, and other popular astroimaging cameras.

question
Will this OAG work with my celestron 6 advanced VX refractor? Or are additional adapters needed?
You will need an adaptor with a 2 end for the scope focuser and a male 42 mm thread on the other end (which will allow you to attach the OAG with the 42 mm female thread adaptor that comes with the OAG.

question
Is this guider compatable with Celestron's f/6.3 reducer/corrector lens on a CPC/SCT 11inch fork mounted scope?
I'm pretty sure it has an SCT thread adapter in the box. The surest way to know would be to download the manual (free) from the Celestron site. It will answer this and many more questions much more reliably than I can. I use it on an Edge HD 11 with their large adapter, no FR. The unit is generally good but the star shapes in the guider are pretty poor even with the well corrected Edge scopes. You'll need to focus carefully otherwise stars will not be very round.
