Sky-Watcher EQ2 Equatorial mount

Compared with its weight, the EQ2 is a solid mount that comes with an aluminium field tripod. It is a good choice for the beginner who wants a mount for medium-class telescopes. It offers good stability and the tall, fully adjustable aluminium tripod with large accessory tray is a real plus. This mount features 360º slow-motion tracking gears on both the right ascension and declination axes with flexible controls. Dual metal setting circles allow location of objects by their R.A. and DEC. coordinates. A separate latitude adjustment aids in polar alignment. An optional D.C. Motor Drive can be installed to the R.A. axis for auto-tracking.
