ZWO Seestar S30 Intelligent Astronomical Telescope

Explore the universe smartly and without complicated setup - the Seestar S30 is a compact smart telescope that lets you start photographing planets, nebulae, galaxies and landscapes in minutes. Combining cutting-edge optics, a sensitive sensor and intelligent software, it can automatically find, aim and track celestial objects while you just enjoy the breathtaking images. Its lightweight and portable design makes it the ideal companion for travel and observing from your backyard - whether you're a beginner or an experienced astronomy enthusiast.

Compact and super portable

• The Seestar S30 is extremely lightweight - weighing just 1.65 kg (3.6 lb), which is less than a regular water bottle
• It's small, portable and always ready to go - a great device for travel or night observing away from home

Dual lens - telephoto & wide-angle

• Includes a telephoto lens (APO triplet) for close-up night shots and a wide-angle lens for landscape, easy subject finding and switching between shot formats
• Telephoto lens has an f/5 aperture, 30mm diameter and 150mm focal length
• Wide-angle lens offers a significantly wider field of view (e.g. ~23° vs. telephoto lens with ~2.46°)

Advanced sensor and high-end optics

• Main camera uses Sony IMX662, a high-sensitivity, low-noise 1080p colour sensor
• Optics are APO triplet with ED glass for sharp images without chromatic aberration

Intelligent shooting modes and applications

1. Stargazing Mode - automatic alignment to deep space (galaxies, nebulae, star clusters)
2. Scenery Mode - wide perspective landscape or night scenes, with AI object tracking
3. Solar System Mode - images of the Moon or Sun with a magnetic solar filter

• The Seestar app allows easy linking, automatic alignment, selection from over 4,000 objects using the night sky map, live stacking, time-lapse, video and statistics

Practical features and enhancements

• Offers built-in filters: dual-band (OIII, Hα), UV/IR cut and dark frame for processing even in light pollution
• Battery life: up to 6 hours shooting, 4 hours in video mode, 6000 mAh battery capacity; easy recharge via USB-C
• Built-in electronic focuser, anti-dew heating, compass and G-sensor bring added practicality
• Supports equatorial mode (using the optional TH10 mount), allowing longer exposures without image rotation

Summary of benefits

• Ultra-portable and user-friendly - ideal for beginners and advanced astronomers.
• Dual lens allows for easy transition between astronomy and wide-angle landscapes.
• Smart app provides automatic centering, live image compositing and easy sharing.
• Versatile use - from deep space to solar photography, landscape and AI object tracking.

Technical parameters
