Set it up, choose your target, and let the magic happen – this fully automated smart telescope brings the wonders of the night sky straight to your smartphone
Exploring the universe has never been easier than with the ZWO Seestar S30 Smart Telescope AP30/150. This compact, fully automated refractor makes astronomy more accessible than ever. Even smaller than its predecessor but just as simple to use via an app, it handles all the tricky tasks for you – from calibration and object tracking to capturing and stacking images. Its high-quality optics and the advanced Sony IMX662 colour sensor work together to produce detailed, low-noise images. Meanwhile, you can sit back in comfort and select your target. Within moments, you’ll see celestial wonders unfold in breathtaking detail, as they reveal their full beauty before your eyes.
Exceptional optics for crystal-clear, detailed images
The Seestar S30 stands out as an apochromatic refractor, boasting a triplet lens design with premium ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass. This ensures true-to-colour, razor-sharp images. With a larger field of view compared to its predecessor, you can now easily capture sprawling galaxies, nebulae, and other celestial wonders. The autofocus feature ensures every image is sharp without the need for manual adjustment. Plus, three integrated filters optimise viewing even in light-polluted areas, making it perfect for urban stargazing. The built-in dew shield prevents condensation, so you can capture pristine images in any conditions.
A smart telescope with app-based control
Astrophotography has never been simpler than with the ZWO Seestar S30. Its intuitive app guides you through every step, making it ideal for beginners and seasoned astronomers alike. Automatic calibration aligns the telescope with precision at the push of a button. The GoTo system and built-in tracking locate your target objects effortlessly and keep them centred in the field of view. With advanced live stacking, you’ll witness real-time improvements as each frame adds more intricate details to your astrophotography. The mosaic imaging mode even allows you to capture large celestial objects by seamlessly stitching together multiple images.
All the data you need for planned or spontaneous stargazing
Wondering if tonight is the right time to observe? The dedicated app for the ZWO Seestar S30 provides everything you need to plan your stargazing session, including visibility forecasts, cloud cover data, and moon phase information. Its extensive database of over 4,000 celestial objects, complete with star maps and a sky atlas, allows you to explore and plan with ease. For those spur-of-the-moment nights, the “Tonight’s Best” feature highlights the most impressive sights currently visible, so you never miss a show-stopping moment.
Technology designed for beginners and experts
With three optimised imaging modes – "Stargazing" (deep-sky objects), "Solar System" (planets and the Moon), and "Scenery" (landscapes) – the Seestar S30 automatically adjusts settings to match your subject, making it perfect for novices. The app also offers advanced image processing with automatic noise reduction, ensuring your photos retain all the fine details of celestial objects. Share your stunning images instantly with a global community of astronomy enthusiasts.
Experienced astrophotographers will appreciate the portability and performance of this compact smart telescope. Individual frames can be saved in RAW format to the internal storage for professional-level post-processing, making it a powerful addition to any equipment lineup.
Daytime photography with the smart telescope
The Seestar S30 isn’t just for night-time stargazing – it excels during the day, too. The included magnetic solar filter allows you to safely observe the Sun and its sunspots with ease. It’s also perfect for wildlife and landscape photography, offering both wide-angle and telephoto capabilities. The panoramic live view helps you centre your subject quickly, while the telescope’s tracking feature ensures moving subjects, like animals in the wild, stay perfectly framed.
The WO Seestar S30 Smart Telescope AP30/150 is your all-in-one, user-friendly tool for capturing awe-inspiring photos and videos of the universe – both day and night.
