Product Information

Also they are updating the list of targets to , wait for it , 500 objects !!!! assuming 250 of those will be in the southern hemisphere , thats 250 for us in the NH . Thats enough philosophising for a Bank Holiday and, besides, I suspect the 90 day monsoon is about to hit SW England… It may not be the finest smart telescope around, but if you can get a good second-hand price (Unistellar no longer sells this model) then it’s worth considering because it still offers incredible images of faint galaxies, nebulae and star clusters despite light pollution. Since it’s a reflector telescope it will occasionally need collimating (see below).Read our full Unistellar eVscope review. What is collimating?

The shape of the DWARF II is special. Because we use a periscope structure to lower the center of its gravity and enhance its stability. This structure makes DWARF II look different from other telescopes. DWARF II is a compact smart telescope with dual camera and AI power. You can take shots of deep sky objects, Galaxy and Nebula. Watch and record videos of birds and animals. Dwarf IIEasy to Control with Your Mobile DevicePlease note, 365Astronomy offers only the Deluxe bundle at the moment as we believe that most customers would sooner or later buy the additional accessories anyway. Depending on the demand and customer interest, we might decide to offer the Classic edition and the optional accessories separately in the future. Dwarf II Features Versatile to Take Shots of DSO, Birds and Animals Controlled by your smartphone, they scan the skies, ask you what you want to look at, take you to it, and send the image straight to your phone. I spent much of yesterday persuading my iPhone and Android tablet to communicate with the DWII, then updating its firmware (using the tablet)…got there in the end. DWARF II has two cameras, a wide-angle camera, and a telephoto camera. Through the wide-angle camera, you can take pictures/videos as a normal camera, or preview the field of view. Find the target in the middle of the wide-angle view, then the telephoto camera is aiming your target. And the telephoto image is always at a fixed place (near the center ) of the wide-angle image. You will also see some more values such as Astigmatism and Coma. Again, these are measured by the interferometer when we take measurements of the optical surface after adjustment. These are values which ideally would be at 0 but as our test optics are all curved lenses, there will always be astigmatism and coma present. The lower the number, the less of these aberations you will effectively see but with most refractors, you can buy field flatteners which will compensate for the coma anyway. The astigmatisms value is explaining the error between the symmetrical curvature of the lens. Basically, no lens will be perfectly symmetrical, the lower the astigmatism, the more symmetrical the lens surface is.

DWARF II is a compact smart telescope with dual camera and AI power. You can take shots of deep sky objects, Galaxy and Nebula. Watch and record videos of birds and animals. This is different from a regular GOTO telescope where you need to build an astrophotography setup consisting of telescope OTA, GOTO mount, dedicated astronomy camera, plus other accessories, and then work out how to make it all work together and take images that you then work on in post-processing.But for astrophotography, smart telescopes are really disrupting a pursuit that had a relatively high barrier to entry in terms of the money you needed to spend and the amount you had to learn. You won’t be winning NASA APODs or Astronomy Photographer of the Year with the images, but neither would you with any of the more expensive smart telescopes. There are now six different smart telescopes on the market, including the Dwarf II. You can read a detailed comparison here of the Best Smart Telescopes.

We are committed to providing a reliable and efficient delivery service for our valued customers. It may not have been mentioned that much in SGL but it has been selling like hot cakes over in the US and has generated a bit of a frenzy over on the CloudyNights (CN) forum. CN can be a bit pedantic about posts in the wrong forum sections, so because the Dwarf can be used for EAA you can't post any post processing comments in that section (those are moved to the image processing section(s).

Connect your smartphone/tablet with DWARF II via WiFi, then you can wirelessly control DWARF II through DWARFLAB App (available in Android & iOS) and take pictures/videos. We will provide API and developer documentation, so you can even run your own programs on DWARF II. Connect your smartphone/tablet with DWARF II via WiFi, then you can wirelessly control the telescope through DWARFLAB App (available in Android & iOS) and take pictures/videos. Note: Please ensure that your phone/tablet supports Bluetooth 4.0 & WiFi 5GHzNot to be confused with the best computerized telescopes, smart telescopes are motorized and come equipped with both artificial intelligence (AI) and camera sensors. They use AI to align themselves with the night sky, providing apps that make it easy to ‘go to’ any object you want at the touch of a button. However, what makes the best smart telescopes so addictive is that they also take incredible images of all kinds of objects in the night sky. One other key difference is that smart telescopes usually have no eyepiece for you to look through (except for the Unistellar eVscope 2), but rather you view images on your phone (or laptop). The Deluxe edition includes all items that are included in the Classic edition, plus one extra battery, one UHC filter, two ND (solar) filters and a filter adapter.
