... Meade Instruments Corporation . ... How to Calculate Power . How to Calculate Power: The magnification, or power, at which a telescope is operating is a function of the focal length of the telescope's main (objective) lens (or primary mirror) and the focal length of the eyepiece employed. ... Example: The Meade DS-2070AT telescope has an objective lens focal length of 700mm; when this telescope is used with a 25mm eyepiece, a power of 700/25 = 28 power (written as "28x") results. ... about meade | ...

... Appropriate values of DIT the integration time (DIT secs) for each individual integration, are lmited by various considerations. N.B. Ndit individual Integration s each of DIT secs are coadded to form a single Exposure of time Ndit*DIT]. The recommended minimum DIT is one sec (the minimum possible exposure time) or the value at which the noise becomes sky (rather than detector) limited. ... The recommended maximum DIT is such as to keep the detector wells less than half full. ... 40 sec . ...
