Fast optics and modern camera devices require automatic focusing in every small period of time as temperature can affect focal

length and modify the optimal focus position. Pegasus FocusCube v2 has been developed to meet these requirements. This

device can easily lift more than 6kg (212 ounces) of imaging equipment when the telescope points to the zenith!

Designed in high quality with modern electronics it can provide digital precise focus control from a PC. FocusCube v2 includes a

stepper motor for absolute position focusing. Electronics and stepper motor are enclosed in a compact sized box.
