Better astrophotography
What is the most important factor for taking spot-on and exceptional photographs?
The simple answer: well-aligned support.
You have probably already experienced this drama: put your mount on the tripod and try to align it freehand with a normal ball head. It's not an easy task. Especially when it's dark and maybe cold.
Make your job easier by simply eliminating the biggest source of error. With the equatorial head you can adjust the polar height and azimuth angle exactly like with a large telescope. This way you achieve the precision you need.
AZ adjustment
Two screws are used for exact azimuth adjustment. Just as if you have almost reached the pole and you just need to find the last stretch that leads in the right direction. After adjustment you can attach the equatorial head.
Tilt angle from -35 to 60°
At home or on the go: with the equatorial height for MiniTrack and other travel holders, you are perfectly equipped for your trips. Iceland or perhaps Namibia: whatever your destination, you will have the opportunity to take fabulous astrophotographs anywhere.
- Possibility of adjustment between -35 and 60 degrees of latitude
- Easy-to-use lever for fixing
Level
For orientation to the north celestial pole it is important that the setting is exactly straight. It is pleasant if the operation is simple: thanks to the level and the equatorial head.
Vixen Style Dovetail Rail Mount
In order to place almost any small mount on the equatorial head, it was equipped with a "Vixen-style mount" which is common in astronomy. This quick clamp offers the advantage of setting up the device quickly and comfortably.
Aluminum
The equatorial head is made of metal and provides a stable base for your mini stand. Don't complicate your life anymore with tripod heads that aren't designed for astronomy or that are even made of plastic. With this equatorial head you can transform your tripod or mini tripod into a real astronomical workhorse - reliable for many years. Now all you have to do is improve and start taking astrophotographs.
