Just 3 Steps to Stunning Cosmic Images
4K Dual-Lens - Wide View, See It All
A dual-lens system with 4K wide-angle and telephoto cameras, elevating smart telescope imaging to a professional level. Powered by a telephoto IMX585 sensor (1/1.2", 4× larger light-sensitive area vs. S30) and a wide-angle IMX586, it delivers 4× higher resolution, lower noise, and cleaner, more natural image quality.
Four Imaging Modes - Built for Astrophotography
From distant galaxies and glowing nebulae to the Milky Way in motion — from planets overhead to landscapes below — Seestar S30 Pro captures every perspective in 4K Ultra HD.
One-tap Milky Way & Star Trails
The Milky Way stretches across the frame, and star trails trace the slow motion of the sky. It supports astrophotography time-lapse, revealing the vastness, rhythm, and beauty of the night above.
8K Milky Way Stitching — One-Click Mosaic
The Seestar S30 Pro’s built-in Milky Way stitching automatically creates horizontal or vertical mosaics, expanding the field of view far beyond a single frame while preserving ultra-high-resolution detail.
Freeze the ground, Two Worlds in Perfect Focus - Lock the landscape. Let the sky move.
Seestar S30 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.
Intelligent Constellation Recognition, Read the Stars with One Tap
Seestar S30 Pro instantly identifies and labels constellations in your view, revealing how stars connect into familiar patterns — clearly, naturally, and at a glance.
Looking for your zodiac? With one-tap GOTO, Seestar automatically locks onto your constellation, removing complexity and letting discovery feel effortless—even the first time.
Vast Celestial Targets. Stargazing Simplified.
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.
One-Tap Post-Processing, Effortless Imaging
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.
DSO Mosaic Stitching, Stunning 8K Image
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.
Plan it. Sleep on it.
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.
Equatorial Mode*
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.
*Additional accessories are required.
Daytime Observation - See Far with a Single Device
Seestar S30 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.
4-Element Apochromatic Lens
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.
Active Anti-Dew Control
Built-in anti-dew control gently regulates the lens temperature to prevent condensation during long sessions, even in cold, humid, or rapidly changing conditions.
The optics stay clear and stable—so your imaging run continues uninterrupted, from first exposure to last.
Triple Filters. Tuned for the Night.
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.
128 GB Built-In Storage
With 128 GB of onboard storage, you can keep capturing without stopping to manage files or clear space.
No interruptions. No lost moments. Just room to explore, capture, and create.
The Sky Within Reach Anywhere -Remote Control Across Regions
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.
Even when you’re not on site, you’re still seeing that sky—with your own eyes.
Seestar AI Assistant
Use simple voice commands to enjoy real-time guidance as you explore the night sky.
Open Integration - Built to Expand.
Seestar supports the ASCOM Alpaca open protocol, enabling compatibility with a wide range of third-party software, including NINA and more.
From automated observing to fully tailored workflows, Seestar is more than a device. It’s an open platform, designed to grow with your ideas and expand what’s possible under the night sky.
Connect, Share, Explore — Worldwide
A place where stargazers gather to explore the cosmos, create, share, and inspire each other.

Notes
- As a precision optical and electronic device, a smart telescope may be damaged if dropped. Please avoid drops and impacts.
- Image results may vary depending on light pollution conditions, parameter settings, and stacking duration. Actual results are subject to real-world shooting conditions.
[1] At 1×, both the telephoto and wide-angle cameras capture images at 4K (3840 × 2160) resolution. Resolution decreases at 2× and 4×. The real-time live preview stream for both cameras is 1080P.
[2] Milky Way imaging requires dark-sky conditions. In areas with higher light pollution, the Milky Way may not be clearly visible. Actual results depend on on-site conditions.
[3] NFC: The smartphone must support NFC to use this feature (only some newer iPhone models support NFC reading; older models do not. Android support varies by manufacturer—please refer to your device specifications). To use NFC, the telescope must be powered on, the phone unlocked, and Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, and GPS enabled on the phone. NFC sensitivity varies due to differences in phone NFC antenna position and size; please identify your phone’s NFC sensing area. After changing the Wi-Fi name, the phone must manually update NFC information; otherwise, NFC may not function.
[4] Due to system usage and storage chip allocation, the actual available storage is approximately 100 GB. System updates may affect storage allocation. Please refer to actual available capacity.
[5] Under laboratory conditions at 25 °C, battery life is measured at approximately 6 hours in Stargazing Mode (with image enhancement and object tracking enabled), and approximately 4 hours in Scenery Mode video recording (no object tracking, MP4 format). Data provided by ZWO Laboratory for reference only; actual performance may vary.
[6] 60 s long exposures are supported only in Equatorial Mode and are not available in Alt-Azimuth Mode. Long exposures place high demands on tracking accuracy; precise polar alignment is required in Equatorial Mode to ensure accurate tracking. Inaccurate alignment may reduce imaging efficiency. Actual performance depends on conditions.
[7] When observing the Sun, a solar filter must be installed. Do not allow the main camera to observe the Sun directly, as this may cause permanent damage to the device.
[8] Intelligent noise reduction refers to optimizing noise and star point quality in actual astrophotography images. It enhances real captured images and does not generate synthetic or AI-created images. This product captures real astronomical images only; no AI-generated images are produced.
[9] Wi-Fi transmission range data is provided by ZWO Laboratory, measured at 20 meters in an open outdoor environment with no interference. For reference only; actual range depends on real-world conditions.
[10] If sudden weather changes occur during scheduled imaging (e.g., cloud cover, rain, strong winds), the planned task may not be completed, and the device will not automatically power off. Please confirm actual weather conditions before scheduling an imaging plan.
