Product Description
Designed for deep-sky imaging with Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, the Radial Guider lets you photograph and guide simultaneously, whether manually or with the aid of an autoguider. It eliminates the problem of differential flexure, which can occur when using a separate guidescope. The Radial Guider is compatible with a 1.25" illuminated reticle eyepiece or an autoguider with a 1.25" nosepiece. The housing threads onto the rear cell of the telescope and has threads for attachment of a camera T-ring (sold separately). The guiding eyepiece can be adjusted radially for easy guide star acquisition.

Nice add-on to your deep sky photoset,

This review is from: Celestron Radial Guider Schmidt-Cassegrains (Electronics)
The small side prism delivers substantially more luminiscent imaging of the fainter stars than one could actually expect. However, manual guiding might be a real challenge, especially, should your option is limited by Alt-Az GoTo mount. Therefore I suggest to get prepared to study auto-guiding software and test your RS-232 port communication. Also, in order to use Canon EOS 300...450 models, you need to obtain additional extender ring, because the radial guider's winding-in will be obstructed by the dimentions of the built-in EOS flash.

Radial Guider,

Nice concept. I own 5 telescopes including one schmidt cassegrain. This won't fit or work with any of them. So I wasted my money buying it. But it sure seems like a neat concept...too bad.
