The “Advanced” in Advanced Coma-Free A traditional Ritchey-Chrétien (RC) is a type of reflector that delivers a coma-free, flat field of view via hyperbolic primary and secondary mirrors. RC telescopes (from a variety of manufacturers) are found in most of the world’s top observatories and NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Because the mirrors in these telescopes have always been very expensive to make, few amateur astronomers could enjoy them. Fortunately, Meade engineers developed a radical new Advanced Coma-Free design by combining a hyperbolic secondary mirror with a corrector-lens-and-spherical-primary-mirror combination that performs as one hyperbolic element. This ACF design produces a coma-free, flat field of view that rivals traditional RC telescopes at a fraction of the cost. The design even eliminates diffraction spikes and improves astigmatism, both of which are inherent in the traditional RC design. When reviewing Meade’s LX400-ACF Advanced Coma-Free, Sky and Telescope magazine said, “[It] does indeed perform like a [RitcheyChrétien]. The difference between the off-axis images (compared to a Schmidt-Cassegrain) was dramatic to say the least.”

LX600 FEATURES EXCLUSIVE TO THE 16 INCH MODEL
c
LX600 SERIES FEATURES The LX600 is a simple to operate, portable package that makes taking great astrophotos as easy as focusing your camera and opening the shutter. The collection of features and technology integrated into the LX600 is unavailable from any other manufacturer and cannot be duplicated by just attaching a set of add-ons to another scope.
Weighing in at Observatory-class, the 16 inch LX600 boasts features not available with the standard LX600 line: i Filtered Cooling Fan To keep your telescope in thermal equilibrium the optical tube is equipped with a cooling fan as well as a filtered exhaust vent.
b StarLock The LX600 integrates a unique star tracking and object finding system into the telescope mount. This integration allows the telescope to center your target perfectly in the field of view. Once centered, the star tracking system communicates directly with the motor drives to automatically insure that your scope stays locked onto its target with arcsecond precision. The automated optical tracking system delivers long-exposure guiding with pinpoint stars on astroimages — all without the need of an external computer.
j Professional-Grade Fork Mount With 11" Gears. The massive 16" LX600 fork system, cast in one continuous piece from one declination housing to the other, includes a total of four 80mm roller bearings in declination (two in each housing) and two roller bearings in right ascension (one each of 100mm and 150mm bearings in the RA housing). Usage of these precision roller bearings in the telescope's design permits the addition of substantial auxiliary equipment without the risk of strain on the mount. Large DC-servo motor-driven 11" worm gears on both axes yield smooth, precision tracking and slewing required of a professional telescope.
i d
b
1) MAX Wedge (optional) The MAX Wedge was designed using advanced CAD analysis to assure both ease of adjustment and rock solid stability using modern light weight alloys. Attractively finished, all standard field installation and adjustments on the MAX Wedge can be performed with the included tools or using large, easily accessible ergonomic handles and knobs.
j
c New f/8 Advanced Coma-Free™ Optical System Meade has completely redesigned the OTAs with a new mirror mounting and focusing system to achieve zero image-shift and a two-speed microfocuser. The scope features faster f/8 ACF™ optics giving you pinpoint stars all the way across the field of view. The OTAs are available in 10, 12, 14 and 16 inch apertures. d Internal Crayford-style 7:1 Focuser The completely redesigned mirror mounting system achieves zero-image shift and integrates a two-speed microfocuser for quick and easy adjustments.
c
e Solid Fork Mount With Heavy Duty 5.75" Gears. Large, high-quality worm-gear drives in both axes provide smooth movements with low periodic error that are critical for long exposure astrophotography, that provides the freedom to go horizon to horizon without any meridian flip, unlike German Equatorial Mounts.
f 1! MAX Tripod The MAX Tripod can be transported or permanently installed. It provides a wide stance to assure that it can safely carry the 16" LX600’s payload in all orientations, but still collapses down to a size that is easy to handle. It will even fit in a single vehicle with the rest of your gear. The hinged feet are fitted with built-in anti-vibration pads for the most stable viewing possible.
f Alt/Az Mode In alt/az mode, the LX600 also makes for the best visual and short exposure experience possible. StarLock will put every target dead center in the eyepiece and track with arcsecond accuracy so you can concentrate on the beautiful, wide fields of pinpoint stars created by the superb f/8 ACF optical system.

h Giant Field Tripod With 3" diameter chromed steel legs and cast aluminum tripod head — adjustable from 34" to 54" — the Giant Field Tripod provides a research-grade foundation for the LX600.
1# Portability Need a telescope system that can be easily broken down and moved to a dark-sky site? Always wanted a bigger telescope, but were worried about the weight? With the NEW LX600 Split Fork design, you can have both. The OTA can be quickly separated from the mount, reducing the total weight that must be lifted at one time by 35 lb. This allows for easy setup and transportation even with a 12" or 14" OTA.
LX850™. RE-ENGINEERED. REFINED. REMARKABLE. The portable astro-imaging system that can be set up, aligned and imaging in less than thirty minutes.

Building on the foundation of the technologically revolutionary LX800, Meade engineers have taken the next step in astrophotographic evolution. We’ve kept the same innovative concepts like Starlock™ fulltime automatic guiding and high-precision pointing, f/8 ACF OTAs with internal Crayford-style two-speed focuser and a portable precision German equatorial mount, but re-engineered it to deliver more performance with less user effort. Here is a brief list of a few of the changes and new features made to create the new LX850: NEW polished bronze worms in both RA and DEC drives that deliver smooth motion with low periodic error NEW larger roller bearings in both RA and DEC axes to better handle large loads NEW roller bearings in the RA and DEC clutch assemblies to allow freer motion with the clutches loosened for easier balancing
LX850 f/8 Advanced Coma-Free 12 inch 10 inch
NEW one-piece 1-inch thick saddle plate with improved dove tail clamps, thicker OTA dovetail rail and radius blocks to reduce flexure between the OTA and mount NEW alterative Starlock mounting position on ACF OTAs for virtually no flexure between StarLock and the primary optics NEW StarLock software improvements to guide star selection, tracking/ guiding accuracy, Ultra High Precision Pointing, and Drift Alignment NEW StarLock automatic guide rate calibration which analyzes the sky conditions and sets the best possible guide rates for both RA and DEC What's more is that all of this technology and engineering delivers a portable astro-imaging system that can be set up, aligned and imaging in less than 30 minutes.
