English: The Schmidt Telescope at the former Brorfelde Observatory is now used by amateur astronomers. The telescope from 1966 is still located in the same building in Brorfelde as originally. Today the telescope has a 77 cm mirror and a digital 2048x2048 pixel CCD-camera. Originally photographic film was used, and in the lower right part an engineer is showing the former film-box, which was then placed behind the locker at the center of the telescope (at the prime focus).
Dansk: Schmidt Teleskopet fra det tidligere Brorfelde Observatorium anvendes i dag af amatørastronomer fra foreningen Brorfeldes Vennekreds. Teleskopet fra 1966 er forsat placeret i den samme bygning, som det oprindeligt blev placeret. Teleskopet har i dag et spejl med en diameter på 77 cm og er forsynet med et digitalt 2048x2048 pixel CCD-kamera. Oprindelig anvendtes fotografisk film, og nederst til højre viser en ingeniør den tidligere film-box, som dengang blev placeret bag lugen ca. midt på teleskopet (i teleskopets brændpunkt)
