But, I think they live in the future including robots. **Q: it is possible to take picture with this telescope? does it have camara included? how do you take pictures in case it doesnt have a camara?** A: Alejandro, Yes you can take pictures with some limitations. I have take marvelous pictures, but you need to sue a DSLR and you will have to purchase, from Celestron, a T-ring (part #93419) for $10.36 and the T-Adapter for $21.95. You thread these two items together and connect one end to your camer and the other end threads onto your telescope after you take the visual back off of the scope. You can easily photograph the Moon, I suggest that you take pictures of a partial moon. Run some tests and try different exposures. If you can afford a solar filter from Orion, you can take pictures of the Sun. Taking pictures of deep sky objects is difficult with an Alt-Azimuth mount, like the NexStar, but you should be able to get pcitures of Venus, Jupiter, the Pleiades and a few others, as long as you can shoot with a very high ISO. I hope this helps. One other thing that is very vlauable to purchase is the Celestron focal reducer, it will allow more light and widen your angle of view. Do some research on Prime focus photography with the NexStar 6. **Q: Is this motorized? does it follow the track of the planets?** A: Yes, it is motorized. You have an alignment process and once aligned the telescope will track whatever you have slewed to - stars, planets, nebulae and galaxies. The hand controller has a built in menu and for example if you select the moon the telescope will automatically slew (move and point) to the moon and then keep the telescope pointed on the moon until you go to another object. **Q: IS THIS CAMERA FASTAR CAPABLE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY?** A: If you're asking about simple land photography, this telescope is the equivalent of a telephoto lens and is very capable to do the task. If asking about astrophotography, this telescope is capable after several optional accessories are put to use. Think camera adapter, equatorial wedge, much more sturdy mounting instead of the tripod mount provided, and a LOT of patience. This all assumes the camera is sensitive enough for astronomical objects. ## Frequently Bought Together - Celestron NexStar 8SE Computerized Telescope Bundle with Eyepiece Kit, WiFi Module, and Accessories - Celestron 93973 Skyportal WiFi Module, Black - Celestron 18778 2 Amp AC Adapter - Powers Computerised Telescopes, Includes US/UK/EU and AU Adapter Plugs, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/536990910-celestron-nexstar-8se-computerized-telescope-bundle-with-eyepiece-kit-wifi](https://www.desertcart.at/products/536990910-celestron-nexstar-8se-computerized-telescope-bundle-with-eyepiece-kit-wifi) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
