Steel tripod for more stability
This stainless steel tripod provides a much more stable base for the telescope mount compared to models made from aluminium. It is exactly this steadiness that the quality of your observing ultimately depends on. The three steel legs are additionally reinforced by a metal plate giving you a tripod that will not wobble during your observing. The metal plate also has holes provided for holding your eyepieces during your observing sessions.
Optional connection for the Omegon Colossus
Would you like to attach the Omegon Colossus Parallelogram Mount quickly and easily to this tripod? It couldn't be any easier! With the optional Colossus Half Column you can easily attach the aforementioned mount to this telescope tripod. The tripod's azimuth bolt requires this special half-column to provide a stable grip.
Our expert comment:
The mount connector (type Vixen GP / Skywatcher EQ-5) varies greatly between different manufacturers, different models, or even different production batches of the same model. It is therefore not always guaranteed that the tripod will fit your mount.
