 ===== Special Features =====
-  * An adaptive optics unit, the AO-7, can be placed in front of the ST-7 and ST-8, which can be used for guiding and optimising image quality (see e.g. [[en:ost:ccds:ccdops#Self-Guiding mit der AO-7|here]]).
+  * An adaptive optics unit, the AO-7, can be placed in front of the ST-7 and ST-8, which can be used for guiding and optimising image quality (see e.g. [[en:ost:ccds:ccdops#Self-Guiding with the AO-7|here]]).
   * In addition to the main imaging chip, the ST-7 and ST-8 contain a secondary guiding chip that allows the telescope to automatically track an object (see e.g. [[en:ost:ccds:ccdops#Guiding|here]]) while the main CCD captures the actual images.
   * The off-axis guiders of the STF-8300 and the QHY 600M have the advantage of being mounted in front of the respective filter wheel, meaning that guiding is independent of the guide star's brightness in the selected filter. As a result, fainter objects can be used as guide stars with these two cameras than is possible with the ST-7 or ST-8.
