Find A Larger Perspective

With its dual lens design the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope can survey not just distant
celestial objects and Earthly intrigues, but wide vistas too! Expanding the amount of
area in your frame by almost 90 times, the 1080p wide-angle camera allows you
to provide more expansive views of landmarks, skylines, and landscapes. This
larger perspective can also be used to quickly locate objects for close up
examination through the main 30 mm lens; just tap the spot from the wide angle view where you want your main scope pointed and watch as the S30 automatically adjusts. With the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope at your side,
exploring near and far is always just a few taps away!

Big Feature Set, Small Scope

Don’t let the ZWO Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope’s miniature frame fool you! This
smart scope offers the full smart telescope experience, with all the excellent
automation and hardware we like to see compacted into this mini-titan!

Astrophotography-Ready APO Triplet Telephoto
The
Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope can see things from multiple perspectives thanks to its dual
lens setup! Reaching out to the stars is its 30 mm f/5 telephoto optic which
provides a clear view of celestial targets to the full HD camera. This
camera is powered by the Sony IMX662, a STARVIS 2 sensor capable of
rendering your deep sky images in full HD 1080p color! Thanks to an APO
triplet design featuring super ED glass, your images will not only be sharp
but also free of aggressive chromatic aberration. This 150 mm focal length
window is capable of capturing large objects like the Andromeda Galaxy,
Orion Nebula, and Pleiades in a single frame, while also providing
compelling views of mid-sized objects like the Moon, Sun, Hercules Cluster,
Triangulum Galaxy, and more!

Take a Step Back with a Secondary Lens
Allowing the
Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope to zoom out is a secondary set of optics! Perched above the main
30 mm aperture is a wide angle lens that captures a larger perspective. This
wider perspective is paired with a full HD 1080p sensor for capturing these
expansive images in detail. This combination gives you a notably wider field
of view — 23.2° compared to the telephoto 2.46° — for two unique takes
on the same scene. The added perspective can additionally be used to pick
out the object you want to zoom in on in real-time, making snapping to an
up-close view of distant landmarks, birds, and other intriguing objects
quick and easy — with a tap-to-center feature that can automatically center your telephoto view on objects picked out of the wide angle!

Daytime Object Tracking Technology
The Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope has an eye for objects, capable of daytime target tracking! With this feature you’ll be able to outline an object you’re interested and then sit back as the S30 intelligently follows your target of choice — perfect for subjects like nature and wildlife which can be challenging to track manually! At this time information on this exciting feature is still emerging, such as what objects the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope can intelligently identify, so be sure to check back in for more information on this exciting addition to the S30’s already impressive feature set!

Compact Constant Companion
While the
ZWO Seestar S50 All-in-One Smart Telescope
was already a great display of miniature
engineering, the S30 pushes the envelop even
further! Shaving almost 2 inches in overall height
and about 3 pounds of fully assembled weight from
the S50, the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope
is even more travel friendly. This ultra-compact
philosophy has been carried over to the tripod as
well, with the S30 sporting a low-profile 3/8-16 mount tripod.
Combined this smart telescope is a much smaller
total package than the S50, enabling you to carry a
pocket observatory more places than ever before!

Automated Image Amplification
Once you’ve chosen your
celestial target, sit back and let the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope handle the rest! By
interweaving each new image with the previous photos you can reveal
impressive amounts of detail and color compared to what you can observe or
capture in any one frame. This processing is done in real-time, so you can
leave your smart telescope to compose your incredible astrophoto or stay
connected and watch the night sky come alive right before your eyes! The
Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope’s automation doesn’t stop when your session does either! For
even more impact in your final images ZWO has integrated AI post-processing
that can help create clearer, cleaner, and more dynamic images without
requiring tons of manual post-processing!

Stellar Smarts
The Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope comes packed full of
features that make tuning this smart telescope for perfect shots a breeze.
Find objects with the smart recommendations or through the incredible
SkyAtlas and watch as the S30 hunts them down with its internal sky model
and intelligent plate solving. Focusing the 30 mm optic on your celestial
target for its 10, 20, or 30 second exposures can be done automatically with
the S30’s built in auto-focus and tracking technology. This will keep your
smart telescope centered and sharp throughout your imaging session, or for
even more immersive shots you can expand your images with the mosaic
feature. This automatically images and stitches together multiple sections
of the sky for a simple, single, panorama-esque shots or custom object
framings! For challenging environmental conditions this smart scope features
a dew heater which will fend off moisture and keep your optics clear
throughout your session. Last but certainly not least is a set of built in
filters which allow you to choose between a standard imaging perspective or
a nebulosity enhancing OIII & Ha duo filter with just a tap; with a
third dark filter built-in for calibrating without a dust cap.

Ready to Image, Day or Night
With scenery and solar
modes built in, the Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope is ready to image even after
sun-up! With scenery mode you’ll be able to explore any environment you find
yourself in through the S30’s dual perspectives, bringing you close and
closer still to nature, wildlife, urban skylines, and more! For a more
astronomical daytime experience ZWO has included a solar filter that will
transport you to the Sun! Simply snap this magnetic filter over the 30 mm
lens, let the S30 find our solar companion, and watch as the Sun comes alive
on your screen!

Compact Footprint, Full-Size Power
The Seestar S30
All-in-One Smart Telescope takes portability seriously! With the S30 itself coming in at 8.3″ x 5.5″ x
3.1″, a 3/8-16 mount tripod that’s a mere 5.5″ x 1.4″ when closed, and a combined weight
of a featherlight 3.64 lb. this truly can be your constant companion,
whether that be on your deck, in your backyard, or on the road! With a 6000
mAh that provides 6 hours of power, this will be ready for tons of imaging
at a moments notice; and with a USB-C recharging port you can easily top up
from the same source that fuels the majority of today’s mobile devices!

With WiFi and Bluetooth built
in you can deploy and use your Seestar S30 All-in-One Smart Telescope anywhere! With 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz
WiFi support you can optimize the S30’s wireless hotspot for maximum range
(30 feet) or wireless congestion, ensuring you can establish the clearest
line of communication for your situation! For keeping your connection to the
outside world while using the Seestar, Bluetooth 5.0 will allow you to
