The Seestar S50 Pro is a dual 4K smart telescope unlike any other on the market, integrating ZWO's renowned astronomy technology into a simple to use, all-in-one instrument. Not just a minor upgrade to the standard S50, the new S50 Pro features much higher resolution imaging sensors, massive 9 hour battery life, 4-element apochromatic lens with an element of Extra-low Dispersion glass, and advanced mosaic modes.


Like the S30 Pro, the Seestar S50 Pro features a new dual-camera system with two 4K sensors, providing rich, detailed wide-angle and telephoto views of the cosmos, and 3 times the light gathering area of the S30 Pro.



Engineered to minimize chromatic aberration, the 4-element apochromatic lens (with an Extra-low Dispersion glass) delivers rounder, sharper stars and clean, neutral blacks.
The result is a night sky rendered with clarity and balance — true to what the eye expects and the universe deserves.



From distant galaxies and glowing nebulae to the Milky Way in motion, from planets overheard to landscapes below, the Seestar S50 Pro captures every perspective in 4K Ultra HD.



Telephoto mosaic capture stitches a wider frame while preserving telephoto detail. It expands the field of view and can output up to 8K high-resolution images




The Seestar S50 Pro intelligently separates the foreground from the stars, keeping the Milky Way sharp and free of trails while preserving a crisp, natural landscape — all with a single tap.



The Seestar S50 Pro instantly identifies and labels constellations in your view, revealing how stars connect into familiar patterns — clearly, naturally, and at a glance. Long exposure star trail captures can be automatically turned into dynamic videos, showing the night sky moving over time.



With access to 80,000+ deep-sky objects and 600,000+ stars, simply select a target in the app and the Seestar will automatically locate, track and capture. Get stunning cosmic images in minutes.


With a single tap, Seestar reduces noise while preserving fine celestial detail — delivering clean, natural images with remarkable clarity. Apply DBE (Dynamic Background Extraction) to balance uneven backgrounds, making your cosmic shots sharper and more detailed.


The device shoots continuously following a planned mosaic grid and automatically stitches the images, creating grand, immersive visuals. Each capture breaks through the limitations of a single frame, delivering stunning, expansive astrophotography.



Choose your target and schedule in advance. Seestar takes care of the rest—automatically locating, tracking, capturing, and refining the night sky for you. No need to stay up all night — never miss a spectacular celestial event.



Designed to counter Earth’s rotation, Equatorial Mode keeps celestial targets precisely tracked—so stars remain sharp and deep-sky objects stay steady in frame for longer exposures. The S50 Pro features a precision drive system with near-zero backlash. Combined with Equatorial Mode, it delivers faster, smoother tracking and fine adjustments for a significant boost in imaging efficiency. 

Note: Additional fluid head required for equatorial mode.



The Seestar S50 Pro isn’t just a palm-sized observatory for the night sky—it’s also a powerful ultra-telephoto camera for daytime use. From birdwatching and distant landscapes to rocket launches, it brings far-away subjects close with ease. With photo, video, and time-lapse modes, Seestar quickly locks onto your subject and keeps it smoothly tracked—turning long-distance scenes into clear, stable captures.



Built-in anti-dew control gently regulates the lens temperature to prevent condensation during long sessions, even in cold, humid, or rapidly changing conditions. A built-in three-filter system adapts seamlessly to different observing conditions—so every scene is captured at its best:

  • Dark Field Filter | Automatically suppresses long-exposure noise for cleaner deep-sky images.
  • UV/IR Cut Filter | Blocks unwanted infrared light, preserving clarity and true color.
  • Light Pollution Filter | Optimized for OIII and Hα, it reduces the effects of moonlight and urban glow—revealing emission nebulae with striking contrast and detail.



The Telescope Network connects Seestar telescopes around the world into a single, unified network. Simply add your device, and remote control is instantly enabled—across regions and time zones.

Browse celestial catalogs, tap to GoTo and capture targets, and monitor live views and progress in real time.



The Seestar AI assistant lets you use simple voice commands to enjoy real-time guidance as you explore the night sky. It quickly searches the target, performs GOTO positioning, and starts capture, making stargazing more natural and efficient.


Seestar supports the ASCOM Alpaca open protocol, enabling compatibility with a wide range of third-party software, including NINA and more.
