saxon Astroseeker Mount with Steel Tripod
A simple mount, yet efficient
When designing the Astroseeker mount, Saxon engineers kept these words in mind. A simple mount that can really do astronomy, helps beginners to discover the night sky efficiently and will become a tool that can fulfill your passion.
The Astroseeker mount is not only designed to drive a telescope, but is also a multi-role platform for cameras and video recorders. Perfect for lightweight astrophotography, time lapse photography, wide view and panorama photography, video panning and so many more activities.
With motors on both axes the Astroseeker mount can be driven from one point to another accurately in no time and can pinpoint any object. Any night sky object will be in the center of the field of view in no time, or your camera will frame that scene exactly as you like it.
The Astroseeker mount even includes digital encoders and the patented “Freedom Find TM” technology. After moving to a new object the telescope will automatically begin to track the new object accurately. No re-setup is required in one observing session.
If not enough the Astroseeker mount can host the SynScan Version 4, the latest SynScan GO-TO handset. This handset can drive the Astroseeker mount to any object selected from its huge 42000+ object database, including objects from Messier, IC, NGC and Caldwell catalogs, the planets, named stars, double stars, variable stars and even user-defined objects like new comets.
