Our experienced staff can test refractor lenses up to 120mm aperture and provide a comprehensive 2 page report showing the optical quality and Strehl ratio, plus much more information. The next step is to bring the Dwarf II app up, and you'll see an option to connect to the telescope using both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The PV rating (Peak To Valley) is a measurement from the highest point (Peak) to the lowest point (Valley). The DWARF II has a special periscope structure to lower its center of gravity and enhance stability, making it look different from other telescopes.You have access to the individual fits files if you want to stack and process on Mac or pc, but the dwarf does a pretty good job with the levels being edited in Snapseed or similar on my phone.

Looking at the results many are getting on the Facebook forums, I would be inclined to disagree with most of the negative comments in the article. However, tracking is limited to the confines of the narrow-angle camera view, and image recognition fails with all but the most evenly-illuminated and high-contrast objects. Experience how the Orion Nebula grows into a gigantic structure, how the spiral arms wind themselves around the Whirlpool Galaxy, or how the open Perseus double cluster reveals hundreds of sparkling stars.

If it's nighttime, you tell the telescope to initialize, and in about a minute, the telescope points skyward on its own and figures out where it is and where it is pointing.Eventually, there is going to be some curious user who threads a Dwarf II solar filter onto their eyepiece.

Introducing DWARF II - the world's most portable smart telescope controlled by the mobile app DWARFLAB. The Dwarf II will show you the basic features of the Moon and planets, but it’s about as good as a pair of high-power binoculars in this regard – vastly inferior to even a fairly cheap telescope. The Dwarf II also tracks the Sun based solely on real-time software estimating its drift, which is convenient and a feature that no other automated telescope has actually demonstrated before.

Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions.

Once you locate your target in the wide-angle view, the telephoto camera aligns with it, always staying fixed near the center of the wide-angle image. Automatic registration after multiple exposures, DWARF II stacks the images into a bright and clear image. It tracks using automatic image recognition, so it does not really matter if you manually grab or jostle it as long as it is not taking a long exposure. This is a telescope/camera designed for wide fields; it is far too small and lacking in focal length for close-ups of Solar System objects.
