When it comes to tracking the stars with a telescope, there is nothing that compares to a German Equatorial Mount (GEM) because it will precisely follow objects as they rise in the east and set in the west. For observers, a GEM makes it easy to keep your celestial target in your eyepiece. For imagers, it helps you avoid common astrophotography pitfalls like field rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-open-accessibility-text-original=\"16px\"\u003eBefore you can track an object, you need to find it, and that objective can be daunting when you're faced with a vast expanse of inky black sky or a bright city sky. The iEXOS-100 puts a powerful GoTo system in your arsenal of astronomical tools that takes the frustration out of navigating the night sky. This integrated version of Explore Scientific's PMC-Eight™ system transcends the industry standard single processor by utilizing an 8-core microcontroller with eight CPUs that operate independently of one another to focus on defined functions. This delegation of tasks among the processors results in a system that offers superior responsiveness, efficiency, reliability and astoundingly fast timing intervals for smooth image acquisition and accurate tracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-open-accessibility-text-original=\"16px\"\u003eAlthough it is internally complex, the GoTo system can be easily operated from your own Apple, Android or Windows tablet using the ExploreStars app, which has an intuitive nature that makes it simple and quick to align your telescope, navigate the stars and learn specifics about tens of thousands of celestial objects. This dynamic app is fueled by a database that is routinely updated to ensure it remains a relevant resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-open-accessibility-text-original=\"16px\"\u003eOur commitment to creating a streamlined GoTo mount is obvious in other design choices. The iEXOS-100-2 has smooth locking clutches that will let you quickly reposition your telescope from one side to the other and an altitude knob for smooth height adjustments. The mount base includes a small polar alignment tunnel that allows users to roughly align their observing setup with Polaris. It also has a simple bubble level that comes in handy when stabilizing your tripod. Other features include a bracket for holding the battery pack, which powers the PMC-Eight\u003cspan class=\"accessibly-save-inline-font-936\" data-open-accessibility-text-original=\"15px\"\u003e™\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esystem through 8 C batteries (not included); two 1 kg counterweights for balancing; and glow-in-the-dark markers on certain points of the mount and tripod so you can stay oriented with your setup at night.

The built in ST-4 Autoguider port turns this mount into an astrophotography powerhouse, allowing you to utilize most of today's best autoguiders. Using the integrated RS232 port, you can control the telescope from your computer and take advantage of today's most advanced astronomy software. With a weight capacity of 44 lbs, the EQ6-R can handily support an optical tube, imaging accessories and camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSilent Yet Precise Slewing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EQ6-R Pro uses Stepper motors with a 1.8° step angle and 64 micro steps driven.

The hand controller can also connect to a computer using the supplied RS232 cable (USB adapter available), enabling computer control with most astronomy programs. For the astrophotographers looking to reduce Periodic Error, the SynScan hand controller has built in PEC training that can be configured while in the field!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFlexible Polar Alignment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSky-Watcher includes an illuminated polar finder scope to aid the polar alignment process. The finder scope features a circular grid reticle for the northern hemisphere, consistent with today's popular polar alignment apps. For astronomers in the southern hemisphere, the constellation Octans is built into the reticle as well. Even without a clear view of Polaris, the EQ Pro can be polar aligned using our SynScan hand controller.

The AZ-EQ5 bypasses this completely, using a beefy pier extension to elevate the mount head away from the tripod legs.  The pier extension creates enough clearance between the counterweight bar and tripod legs that the mount can be polar aligned at virtually any latitude, from Alaska to Ecuador to Tierra del Fuego.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eReady to Go, Out of the Box!\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile most mounts leave you high and dry to purchase accessories on your own, Sky-Watcher includes plenty of accessories to get you started.  In addition to the SynScan hand controller and the pier tripod, the AZ-EQ5 mount comes with two 7.5lb counterweights and a counterweight extension bar, as well as an extra saddle for mounting a second scope for viewing in dual-OTA mode.  The mount also includes two Canon EOS trigger cables for connecting your camera to the mount (Nikon and Sony cables available separate).  A polar finder scope is optional to assist with setup.  The AZ-EQ5 has a built in USB port for firmware updates, but also allows computer control using various astronomy

The improved precision polar scope maintains a fine engraved reticule, now features adjustable illumination with eight brightness levels. Using with our smart phone app, quick and accurate polar alignment is just a joy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro features four tracking rates, 1X or sidereal, 1\/2X for sky and landscape, solar and lunar. All 4 tracking rates work in both northern and southern hemispheres. We have also added a quick slew mode with both forward and reverse to help quickly reframing your image without disrupting the cameras position. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We have made big improvements on the SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro's removable alt-azimuth base, which features a precision bubble level, degree markings for the altitude and a built in post for the azimuth control. You can also mount the SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro head (without the base) directly to any standard photographic tripod with 1\/4\" or 3\/8\" threads. The SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e

With built-in iPolar, quick and accurate polar alignment is just a joy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro features four tracking rates, 1X or sidereal, 1\/2X for sky and landscape, solar and lunar. All 4 tracking rates work in both northern and southern hemispheres. We have also added a quick slew mode with both forward and reverse to help quickly reframing your image without disrupting the cameras position. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe have made big improvements on the SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro's removable alt-azimuth base, which features a precision bubble level, degree markings for the altitude and a built in post for the azimuth control. You can also mount the SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro head (without the base) directly to any standard photographic tripod with 1\/4\" or 3\/8\" threads. The SkyTracker\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography.

Leading the camera tracker market for nearly four years, iOptron's SkyGuider Pro pushes closer to perfection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe redesigned SkyGuiderTM Pro mount head is more compact, small enough to fit on your palm, better precision, silent tracking, built-in rechargeable power source, ST-4 guiding port and camera trigger port. The improved precision polar scope maintains a fine engraved reticule, now features adjustable illumination with different brightness levels. Using with our iOS app, quick and accurate polar alignment is just a joy. The DEC mounting bracket allows you to balance a heavy camera and\/or lens better, or even mount a light telescope. The optional 8408 hand controller allows you to check the Pole Star position for the polar alignment, slew the mount, adjust the guiding rate, change the mount settings and control the camera trigger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SkyGuiderTM Pro features four tracking rates, 1X or sidereal, 1\/2X for sky and landscape combined, solar and lunar. All 4 tracking rates work in both northern and southern hemispheres. We have also added a quick slew mode with both forward and reverse to help quickly reframing your image without disrupting the cameras position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe have made big improvements on the SkyGuiderTM Pro's removable alt-azimuth base, which features a precision bubble level, degree markings for the altitude and a built in post for the azimuth control. You can also mount the SkyGuiderTM Pro head (without the base) directly to any standard photographic tripod with 1\/4\" or 3\/8\" threads.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DEC mounting bracket package, which includes DEC mounting bracket, counterweight shaft, counterweight and Vixen-type dovetail saddle, makes the SkyGuideTM Pro mount suitable for a heavier camera\/lens system, even a lightweight telescope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SkyGuiderTM Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field

accurate and stable, equatorial mount with the versatility to carry larger instruments and more complex imaging arrays, we created the iOptron CEM120. It offers the benefits of our revolutionary \"center balance\" design: stability, accuracy, and smooth mechanical operation, while capable of carrying a payload up to 115 lbs (52 kg). The \"center balance\" design's natural stability is due to its focusing the mount along with payloads weight directly over the center of the pier or tripod. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The CEM120's performance is demonstrated by its low periodic tracking error of ±3.5 arc seconds. Along with the stability aspect, the CEM120 features an advanced cable management system consisting of more ports in more locations preventing tangle ups and reducing the chance of fractured cables. It also adds some new features to the CEM family like Wi-Fi and LAN for remote operation and easy to use, reliable clutches on both axes. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Optional heavy duty \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8037.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTri-Pier 360\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8038.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePermanent Pier\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e are available for order. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptional Tri-Pier adapter for light weight payload ( \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8036.htm\"\u003e8036-120\u003c\/a\u003e) is also available.

an accurate and stable, equatorial mount with the versatility to carry larger instruments and more complex imaging arrays, we created the iOptron CEM120EC.  It offers the benefits of our revolutionary \"center balance\" design: stability, accuracy, and smooth mechanical operation, while capable of carrying a payload up to 115 lbs (52 kg).  The \"center balance\" design's natural stability is due to its focusing the mount along with payloads weight directly over the center of the pier or tripod. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM120EC's performance is demonstrated by its low periodic tracking error of \u0026lt;0.15 arc sec RMS.  Along with the stability aspect, the CEM120EC features an advanced cable management system consisting of more ports in more locations preventing tangle ups and reducing the chance of fractured cables. It also adds some new features to the CEM family like Wi-Fi and LAN for remote operation and easy to use, reliable clutches on both axes.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOptional heavy duty \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8037.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTri-Pier 360\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8038.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePermanent Pier\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e are available for order. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptional Tri-Pier adapter for light weight payload (\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8036.htm\"\u003e8036-120\u003c\/a\u003e) is also available.

for an accurate and stable, equatorial mount with the versatility to carry larger instruments and more complex imaging arrays, we created the iOptron CEM120EC.  It offers the benefits of our revolutionary \"center balance\" design: stability, accuracy, and smooth mechanical operation, while capable of carrying a payload up to 115 lbs (52 kg).  The \"center balance\" design's natural stability is due to its focusing the mount along with payloads weight directly over the center of the pier or tripod. Along with the stability aspect, the CEM120 features an advanced cable management system consisting of more ports in more locations preventing tangle ups and reducing the chance of fractured cables. They also add some new features to the CEM family like Wi-Fi and LAN for remote operation and easy to use, reliable clutches on both axes. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM120EC2 utilizes two high resolution encoders, one on each axis.  The two encoders enable the mount to perform dual axes tracking.  With advanced sky modeling the CEM120EC2 will be able to account and adjust for polar alignment error as well as changes in atmospheric (refractive) distortion.  Fixed home sensors on each axis, allow the mount to save alignment models after power off too to be used on future nights.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOptional heavy duty \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8037.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTri-Pier 360\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8038.htm\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePermanent Pier\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e are available for order. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptional Tri-Pier adapter for light weight payload (\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ioptron.com\/product-p\/8036.htm\"\u003e8036-120\u003c\/a\u003e) is also available.

This compact 17.5lbs mount can precisely GoTo an object and track with up to 45lbs of gear onboard. With its integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e), polar alignment is a snap, even when the pole star is obscured.

With its integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e), polar alignment is a snap, even when the pole star is obscured.

A sharp looking CNC body is the first indicator the GEM45 is a top quality mount in both form and function. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUtilizing experiences gained during development of our CEM series, we were able to remove unnecessary bulk giving the GEM45 an incredible 2.5 payload to mount weight ratio. This compact 17.5 lbs mount can precisely GoTo an object and track with up to 45 lbs of gear onboard. With its integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e), polar alignment is a snap, even when the pole star is obscured. Large levers on the quick-lock drive engagement system make it easy to snap its drive gears into place even when wearing gloves. There is little chance of your cables getting snagged with the GEM45's internal advanced cable management system. A 6\" dual dovetail saddle accommodates Losmandy and Vixen style dovetail plates. GEM45 mounts utilize reliable stepper motor drive systems with our low power consumption technology. Our new LiteRoc 1.75\" tripod delivers rock solid stability in a lighter, more compact package. A 212,000+ object library with star identification, GPS, Wi-Fi (requires optional iStarFi adapter) are a few of the desirable features standard on a GEM45

GEM45EC w\/ iPolar\/Case\/LiteRoc - 7603ECA","description":"\nInnovative ideas applied to a time tested design, the iOptron® GEM45EC next generation German equatorial mounts. A sharp looking CNC body is the first indicator the GEM45 is a top quality mount in both form and function. \n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUtilizing experiences gained during development of our CEM series, we were able to remove unnecessary bulk giving the GEM45 an incredible 2.5 payload to mount weight ratio. This compact 17.5 lbs mount can precisely GoTo an object and track with up to 45lbs of gear onboard. With its integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e), polar alignment is a snap, even when the pole star is obscured. Large levers on the quick-lock drive engagement system make it easy to snap its drive gears into place even when wearing gloves. There is little chance of your cables getting snagged with the GEM45's internal advanced cable management system. A 6\" dual saddle accommodates Losmandy and Vixen style dovetail plates. GEM45EC mounts utilize reliable stepper motor drive systems with our low power consumption technology. Looking for ultra precise tracking, the GEM45EC with its high resolution encode delivers a PE\u0026lt;0.25 arc sec RMS. Our new LiteRoc 1.75\" tripod delivers rock solid stability in a lighter, more compact package. A 212,000+ object library with star identification, GPS, Wi-Fi (requires optional iStarFi adapter) are a few of the desirable features standard on a GEM45

A sharp looking CNC body is the first indicator the GEM45 is a top quality mount in both form and function. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUtilizing experiences gained during development of our CEM series, we were able to remove unnecessary bulk giving the GEM45 an incredible 2.2 payload to mount weight ratio. This compact 18 lbs mount can precisely GoTo an object and track with up to 45 lbs of gear onboard. With its integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e), polar alignment is a snap, even when the pole star is obscured. Large levers on the quick-lock drive engagement system make it easy to snap its drive gears into place even when wearing gloves. There is little chance of your cables getting snagged with the GEM45's internal advanced cable management system. A 6\" dual dovetail saddle accommodates Losmandy and Vixen style dovetail plates. GEM45EC mounts utilize reliable stepper motor drive systems with our low power consumption technology. Looking for ultra precise tracking, the GEM45EC with its high resolution encode delivers a PE\u0026lt;0.25 arc sec RMS.Our new LiteRoc 1.75\" tripod delivers rock solid stability in a lighter, more compact package. A 212,000+ object library with star identification, GPS, Wi-Fi (requires optional iStarFi adapter) are a few of the desirable features standard on a GEM45

Using its built-in precision level indicator, the operator simply levels the mount and turns on the power; this capable computerized alt-azimuth telescope mount takes it from there. Utilizing the on board 32 channel GPS receiver and built-in position and angular detection sensors; the AZ mount Pro calculates its global position as well as the telescope orientation. Automatically the mount slews the instrument to an easily identifiable bright object in the night sky.

Using its built-in precision level indicator, the operator simply levels the mount and turns on the power; this capable computerized alt-azimuth telescope mount takes it from there. Utilizing the on board 32 channel GPS receiver and built-in position and angular detection sensors; the AZ mount Pro calculates its global position as well as the telescope orientation. Automatically the mount slews the instrument to an easily identifiable bright object in the night sky.

The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\".\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBuilding on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions.  Regarding functionality the CEM26 delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts.  \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26A mount has an integrated electronic polar finder scope known as the iPolar. This tool ensures the accurate alignment of a telescope, even when the pole star is obscured. It comes with a LiteRoc heavy duty stainless steel tripod.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nShipping Box #1: C261A-CEM26 Head w\/ iPolar\/Tray (C261A)\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping Box #2:

CEM26!\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Like their predecessors, the CEM26 is designed with portability in mind, weighing in at only 10 lbs it can support up to a 26lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight to payload ratio. The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\". \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Building on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions. Regarding functionality the CEM26 delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The CEM26B mount has an AccuAlign\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e optical polar scope installed for quick and easy polar alignment.

C262A CEM26 Mount with iPolar, Case and 8283 LiteRoc Tripod - C262A3","description":"\n\u003cb\u003eIntroducing iOptron's new compact next-generation center-balance equatorial mounts the CEM26!\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nLike their predecessors, the CEM26 is designed with portability in mind, weighing in at only 10 lbs it can support up to a 26lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight to payload ratio.  The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\".\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBuilding on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions.  Regarding functionality the CEM26 delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts.  \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26A mount has an integrated electronic polar finder scope known as the iPolar. This tool ensures the accurate alignment of a telescope, even when the pole star is obscured. It comes with a LiteRoc heavy duty stainless steel tripod and an aluminum carrying case.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nShipping Box #1: C262A-CEM26 Head w\/ iPolar\/Case\/Tray

CEM26 C262B Mount with AccuAlign, Case and 8281 1.5T Tripod - C262B1","description":"\u003cp\u003eLike their predecessors, the CEM26 is designed with portability in mind, weighing in at only 10 lbs it can support up to a 26lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight to payload ratio. The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\". \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBuilding on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions. Regarding functionality the CEM26 delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CEM26B mount has an AccuAlign\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e optical polar scope installed for quick and easy polar alignment.

CEM26!\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nLike their predecessors, the CEM26 is designed with portability in mind, weighing in at only 10 lbs it can support up to a 26lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight to payload ratio.  The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\".\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBuilding on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions.  Regarding functionality the CEM26 delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts.  \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CEM26B mount has an AccuAlign\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e optical polar scope installed for quick and easy polar alignment. It comes with a LiteRoc heavy duty stainless steel tripod and an aluminum carrying case.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nShipping Box #1: C262B-CEM26 Head w\/ AccuAlign\/Case\/Tray

CEM26\u003cspan color=\"red\" style=\"color: red;\"\u003eEC\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Like their predecessors, the CEM26 is designed with portability in mind, weighing in at only 10 lbs it can support up to a 26lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight to payload ratio. The key to enable such ratios is the CEM design focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering \"natural stability\". \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Building on the legacy of earlier CEM models we have added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves). A high resolution optical encoder with real-time PEC delivers accurate tracking with PE \u0026lt;0.3 arc sec RMS. Built-in Wi-Fi enabling unparallel connectivity. The CEM26 sets the new standard for compact equatorial mounts. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time since the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The CEM26 is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONOVA® GoTo technology, making it one of the most powerful and accurate GoTo mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects. The Go2Nova® Hand Controller is intuitive to use and its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescopes and locating objects. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The CEM26EC mount has an integrated electronic polar finder scope known as the iPolar. This tool ensures the accurate alignment of a telescope, even when the pole star is obscured. It comes with a LiteRoc heavy duty stainless steel tripod and an aluminum carrying case. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Shipping Box #1: C264A-CEM26EC Head w\/ iPolar\/Case\/Tray (C264A)\u003cbr\u003e
