The HyperStar Lens allows CCD imaging at f/1.9 with compatible Celestron 11”
Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes and compatible CCD cameras. These instructions show
the proper methods for installing the HyperStar lens and CCD camera on the telescope,
and for collimating the lens for the best optical performance.

Warning:
When the HyperStar lens and CCD camera are mounted on the telescope,
there is the potential for damaging the corrector plate if caution is not exercised at all
times. Be especially careful not to bump the CCD camera or HyperStar lens while they
are attached to the telescope. Also, be sure that all cables from the CCD camera are
properly tied off to prevent them from pulling on the camera and lens. Additional tips
and warnings are clearly marked throughout the assembly instructions. As long as care
is used, no problems will occur.
