NEAF 2026: The Ultimate Upgrade? Celestron CPC Deluxe "Powered by PrimaLuceLab"
Revolutionizing the Celestron CPC Deluxe HD for 2026! I am live at NEAF 2026 inside the Celestron booth with two industry titans: Filippo Bradaschia from PrimaLuceLab and Eric Kopit from Celestron. We are discussing a game-changing collaboration that "supercharges" the legendary Celestron CPC Deluxe HD series. By integrating PrimaLuceLab’s ARCO field rotator, ESATTO micro-focuser, and the revolutionary PLAY software, Celestron is bringing professional-grade observatory technology to the amateur community. Whether you own an 8", 9.25", or 11" CPC Deluxe HD, this "Powered by PrimaLuceLab" kit allows you to perform long-exposure deep-sky astrophotography without the need for a complex equatorial wedge. We dive into how the PLAY software simplifies field de-rotation, making the system "Auto Mode" simple for beginners while remaining an open system for advanced users.
