Omegon polar finder scope for EQ-300 mount - perfectly align your mount in just minutes
The north celestial pole is one of the most important points in the sky for astrophotographers. Only when your mount has been aligned with the celestial pole can you succeed in taking beautiful images with pin-sharp stars. This polar finder scope lets you upgrade your EQ-300 mount for astrophotography and align it in a jiffy.
Makes aligning your mount simple
Once the polar finder scope has been attached to your mount, you will be able to find the exact position of the North Celestial Pole within just a few minutes.
You can orientate yourself in the sky with the polar finder scope by using the illustrations of Cassiopeia and the Plough provided. This is achieved by rotating the mount until the constellations shown exactly correspond to the current view of the night sky. Conventional alignment using setting circles is hence no longer required. Absolutely everyone can manage this - simply set the constellations to the right position and your telescope is aligned!
Illumination for use at night
Your telescope is often only a dark shadow at night, with the night sky above you. For this reason, the polar finder scope is provided with a background light so that you can see what you are doing when aligning with it. The illuminated figures and points glow in a red background light, with the brightness steplessly adjustable.
The advantages in a nutshell:
- get started immediately with successful astrophotography
- precise alignment of your mount in just a few minutes
- high-quality optics for a clear view of the Pole Star
- easy installation in your EQ-300 mount
- intuitive operation via illustration - all without numbers and calculation
