Whether your astroimaging setup is in your backyard or in another
state, Celestron’s latest high-capacity German equatorial
mount solves all the most common problems imagers face.
The Celestron engineering team in Torrance, California, spent
years listening to customer feedback and refining prototypes,
perfecting every detail of the mount’s industrial design.
