The DwarfLab Dwarf 3 Smart Telescope is a game-changer for astrophotography enthusiasts. Weighing in at just under 3 pounds, it's portable and easy to use, with a handy carrying case and a solid build. The telescope features a Sony IMX678 Starvis 2 sensor, which specializes in low-light imagery, and two lens options: telephoto and wide. The telephoto lens has a focal length equivalent to 737mm, while the wide-angle lens is perfect for finding subjects.

The Dwarf 3 also comes with a range of features, including sun and moon tracking, object tracking, and a variety of camera modes, including Photo, Video, Burst, Astro, Time Lapse, Auto-Capture, and Pano. The Astro filter captures more infrared light, making it ideal for imaging stars and galaxies, while the Dual-band filter targets specific wavelengths of light associated with emission nebulae.

To get started with the Dwarf 3, simply place it on a level surface or tripod, and start the calibration phase by choosing a target in the Atlas or selecting EQ Mode. The telescope will do the rest, tracking the object and capturing stunning images. The app is also easy to use, with a range of features and settings to customize your experience.

One of the standout features of the Dwarf 3 is its ability to capture stunning images of the sun and moon. With the included magnetic solar filters, you can safely capture images of the sun, and the moon tracking function makes it easy to get great shots of our lunar neighbor.
