The new Vespera Pro II Smart Telescope delivers the best performance and detail, and is hassle-free to use.

Built for users who want sharper detail and a more advanced imaging toolkit, Vespera Pro II combines a Petzval-inspired optical design, a 12.5-megapixel Sony IMX676 sensor with 2 µm pixels, and Vaonis’ seamless smart telescope experience.

The Vaonis Vespera Pro II Smart Telescope is great for users who want the most detailed smart-telescope experience in the Vespera family, without sacrificing simplicity of use. Initialisation, pointing, focusing, tracking and live stacking remain automated, so the experience stays approachable even for first-time users.

Its 12.5 MP resolution and 2 µm pixels are designed to capture finer structures and smaller details, making Pro II the more detail-driven model in the range. The optical design is special because its Petzval-inspired apochromatic quadruplet architecture, in three groups with two ED glasses, is designed to improve correction, sharpness, and overall image cleanliness across the field.

Why the Vespera Pro II Smart Telescope stands out

  • Hassle-free by design: The most advanced instrument that stays intuitive from setup to final image.
  • Initialisation, pointing, focusing, tracking and live stacking are automated so anyone can use it with confidence.
  • Unmatched optical performance: A Petzval-inspired apochromatic quadruplet in three groups with two ED glasses is paired with the Sony IMX676 sensor. Its 12.5 MP resolution and 2µm pixels are designed to deliver the finest level of detail in the Vespera range.
  • Worry-free durability: A robust metal structure, refined mechanics, field-ready construction and a five-year warranty provide long-term peace of mind.
  • Advanced features for demanding users: Multi-Night Capture, wide-field mosaic mode, BalENS real-time processing and Automatic Master Dark calibration help ambitious users push further with less manual work.
  • Ready for every use: With 11 hours of battery life, an integrated hygrometer, 225 GB of storage, a high carbon tripod and USB-C transfer, Vespera Pro II is equipped for long sessions in the field.

Ease of Use and User Experience

Vespera Pro II is built to make advanced astrophotography approachable. From initialisation to framing, autofocus, tracking and live stacking, the core workflow stays streamlined and intuitive.

The result is an instrument that can be confidently recommended to first-time users, while still satisfying experienced observers who want the best performance without the burden of a traditional setup.

  • Automatic initialisation
  • Automatic pointing and tracking
  • Automatic focusing
  • Automatic live stacking
  • Simple mobile-first experience

Optical Performance - Precision Optics and High Definition Detail

At the heart of Vespera Pro II is a Petzval-inspired optical design: an apochromatic quadruplet (four lenses) in three groups with two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glasses.

This architecture is designed to maximise sharpness, control aberrations and maintain a perfect image across the field.

It is paired with the Sony IMX676 sensor, offering 12.5 megapixels and 2 µm pixels. This combination is tuned for finer sampling and more native detail, while still preserving the wide-field versatility that makes the Vespera platform so effective.

Compared with the previous generation, the optimised optics are positioned to improve star sharpness and increase signal capture in the blue and red, helping users reach more detailed, higher-contrast results faster.

  • 50 mm aperture
  • 245 mm focal length
  • f/4.9 optical system
  • Sony IMX676 sensor with 12.5 MP native output and up to 50 MP in Mosaic Mode

Build Quality and Warranty - Built to last and ready to travel

Vespera Pro II is designed around a robust metal structure and refined mechanics that help preserve tracking accuracy and reduce frame rejection. This attention to build quality supports long-term durability in real observing conditions, from repeated transport to frequent field use.

Backed by a five-year warranty, it is a worry-free instrument for users who expect premium reliability over time.

  • Robust mechanical design
  • Premium feel in the field
  • Compact and travel-friendly format
  • 5-year warranty

Vespera Pro II Advanced features - Push further

Advanced tools. Less manual work. Vespera Pro II is made for users who want to take on more ambitious projects without turning each session into a technical workflow.

  • Multi-Night Capture: Resume the same target across multiple sessions, with framing, exposure settings, stacking progress, and mosaic progress preserved from one night to the next.
  • Wide-field Mosaic Mode: Expand the field of view without sacrificing detail, enabling larger compositions while keeping the image clean and well resolved.
  • BalENS: Vaonis’ enhanced real-time image processing engine helps balance signal dynamics and flatten the background, resulting in a cleaner, more uniform image across the frame.
  • Automatic Master Dark: Automatic image calibration applies dark correction in real time, reducing digital noise and helping users obtain sharper, cleaner images with less manual preparation.

Ready for every use - Field readiness

Equipped for long nights in the field. Vespera Pro II is ready to go far beyond a short backyard session. With up to 11 hours of battery life, 225 GB of internal storage, direct USB-C data transfer and a built-in hygrometer that supports automatic anti-fog management, it is designed for real observing conditions.

The included high carbon tripod completes a premium field setup built for stability, portability and all-night use.
