Solid foundation for clear, calm images<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Skywatcher EQ3 Pro SynScan gives your telescope a stable and reliable start. You set it down, you align it, and you immediately notice that everything is quieter. That's important, because a vibration-free mount ensures your image stays sharp when you zoom in on the moon, planets or a star cluster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Skywatcher<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Easy alignment for a better viewing experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The mount lets you set the pole height precisely. Little turn, slight adjustment, and you're right. This way you start with accurate alignment, keeping your objects in focus longer without having to keep adjusting. You can also add a polar finder later, so you work even more precisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

GoTo that makes searching easy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the SynScan GoTo control, you select an object from the database and the mount automatically moves to it. You press a button and you are immediately ready to look. Perfect when you don't want to waste time searching. The motors follow your target cleanly, so you can observe relaxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ready for your first steps in astrophotography<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The EQ3 Pro is light enough to move easily, but strong enough to carry a medium-sized telescope. The motors move smoothly and evenly, so you can take longer exposures without shifting your image. You get a solid foundation for your first photos of nebulae and galaxies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supplied complete, ready to use<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The aluminum tripod is stable and quick to set up. You get counterweights, an accessory holder and the full GoTo kit. All you need to do is connect a power supply and you're good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
