This is my thorough review of the Celestron EdgeHD system (in particular the C11 EdgeHD telescope). I also looked at accessories such as the Celestron f7 reducer, f2 hyperstar adapter, Celestron electric focuser, JMI external Crayford focuser, and the Baader Clicklock. If you also own a Celestron EdgeHD telescope, let me know what you think of it in the comment section below and if you are considering buying a telescope, let me know if you found this review helpful. I'd love to answer any questions you might have about this telescope, other equipment, or astronomy/astrophotography in general. I am always open to new topic suggestions that might be useful to other amateur astronomers.
