DWARFLAB Dwarf II Smart Digital Telescope - Portable, Ultralight, and Packed with Advanced Features for Astronomy Star Parties, Birding, for Adults and Kids, Beginners and Advanced Players (Classic)

Product Information

Are you an amateur astronomer, bird watcher, wildlife photographer, or just a photography enthusiast that wants to capture things you can’t get close enough to, like a ball game or a galaxy? Well, DWARF II is exactly what you need. The Classic edition includes a DWARF II, a carrying bag, a tripod, a replaceable battery and a 64GB microSD card. Please 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 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.

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. The Dwarf 2 should be an evolution of the original Dwarf telescope adding some additional features. In this article, I am going to show you how it works and compare it to the other smart telescopes on the market.Connect your smartphone/tablet with DWARF II via WiFi, then you can wirelessly control DWARF II through DWARFLAB App (available for Android & iOS) and take pictures/videos.

It will be interesting, though, to see the Dwarf 2 actually come out and what people can do with them. 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. 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). 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. Other measurements such as the PV and RMS are important too. With these measurements, the lower the number the better as it shows less curvature on the lens. The flatter an optical lens, the better it will perform. The PV rating (Peak To Valley) is a measurement from the highest point (Peak) to the lowest point (Valley). From this we get the RMS (Root, Mean, Square). This is a similar figure to the PV and measured exactly the same way. The RMS is basically an average height difference from the PV so again, the lower the better. As you can see form the example below, we measured an RMS of just 0.027 wave which is a very good value.If you are looking for a traditional astronomical observing experience, a regular telescope like a large dobsonian would be best for you.

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. Are you an amateur astronomer, bird watcher, wildlife photographer, or just a photography enthusiast that wants to capture things you can’t get close enough to, like a ball game or a galaxy? Well, DWARF II is exactly what you need. What's in the Box - DWARF II Deluxe Bundle: Please be aware that The Widescreen Centre cannot be held responsible for any postal or third-party delays that may occur. We are committed to providing a reliable and efficient delivery service for our valued customers. 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 Device 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 5GHzIt 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). 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.

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 . Once the Zygo test report has been completed, the optical alignment is thoroughly tested and tuned to ensure they are spot on before they leave us. 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. 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.We also measure the Power with our systems which is essentially the error from the reference sphere to the test optic. The reference sphere we use on our system is a very high quality sphere so the closer to zero the Power, the less error between the 2 elements thus ensuring a higher quality optical surface.
