'Vespera Pro' is the top model in the Vespera series by Vaonis, designed for high-definition astronomical observation and photography. It features a 12.5-megapixel high-sensitivity CMOS image sensor (SONY IMX676), enabling high-resolution astrophotography. Additionally, it includes a large-capacity battery and storage, supporting extended shooting sessions.
'Vespera Pro' is designed for easy use by everyone, from beginners to professionals. It supports the observation of deep-sky objects (DSOs) such as galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters, as well as the sun, moon, and solar eclipses. By using the dedicated app 'Singularity by Vaonis' (available for iOS and Android, free), users can select their preferred celestial objects from a catalog of over 4,300, and the device will automatically guide, track, and observe them.
With Vaonis' unique 'CovalENS Technology', the live mosaic mode allows observation and photography up to 50 megapixels. Users can enjoy high-resolution photography with a wide field of view and flexible composition, capturing large celestial bodies within the entire frame.

'Vespera Pro' automatically performs image stacking and noise reduction, generating 8-bit JPEG images, but can also save 16-bit TIFF data and RAW data (16-bit FITS) for more advanced processing. In expert mode, manual settings such as exposure time and gain adjustment are possible.
The product comes with a retractable tripod, humidity sensor, dedicated hard case, and anti-theft lock, ready for immediate use after purchase.
