Many optical designs that advertise themselves as “astrograph” quality actually only produce pinpoint stars across a curved foval plane. While this may be acceptable for visual observing, stars will appear out of focus at the edge when used with a flat chip sensor of a digital camera. EdgeHD optics produce a focal plane more then three-timess flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter then other competing coma-free designs. This guarantees you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today.
