Sky-Watcher HM5 Polar Finderscope EQ5 / NEQ5 / EQ6

Skywatcher HM5 EQ-5

Better alignment for instantly sharper results
The Skywatcher HM5 EQ-5 helps align your mount quickly and accurately. You simply screw the pole finder into the back of the mount. Within seconds, you can see exactly where to aim. This way you start without fuss and without guesswork.

More precision, so better images
The celestial pole is just next to the Pole Star. Therefore, without a polar finder, you quickly get out of alignment. With the HM5, you avoid that. You follow objects more fluidly and your image stays calmer. This makes the difference between a stable image and one that keeps drifting away.

Made for long exposure times
Improved alignment lets you use longer exposures without stars turning into streaks. Your images stay sharp and round, so your astrophotos look more reliable. It works in both the northern and southern hemispheres.

Simple, fast and reliable
You don't need to calibrate anything or make complicated adjustments. The HM5 EQ-5 fits directly on EQ5, NEQ-5 and EQ6 mounts. You point, tighten, and you're ready for an accurate session. Ideal if you want to get more out of your mount without extra electronics.
