Vaonis Vespera Observing Station review


The Vaonis Vespera is your all-in-one ticket to turning into an astrophotographer. Not like bizarre telescopes, the Vespera doesn’t have an eyepiece – you’ll be able to’t look by it! As an alternative, the Vespera accommodates a built-in imaging sensor that captures photographs of no matter it’s pointed at, which you’ll view immediately in your smartphone or pill that you simply use to regulate the Vespera with Vaonis’ ‘Singularity’ software program.

We would then ask, is the Vespera a telescope or a digicam? Vaonis name it an ‘remark station’ and technically, it is each – it sports activities a 2-inch (50 mm), f/4 quadruplet apochromat telescope, which suggests it’s designed round two units of two lenses that take away chromatic (coloration) aberration. On the identical time, it hosts a 2.1MP coloration Sony STARVIX IMX462 CMOS digicam sensor for recording the Vespera’s readability of view.
