Sky-Watcher AZ4 Alt-Az Astronomy Mount with Aluminium Tripod
The Sky-Watcher AZ4 Alt-Azimuth mount is popular with astronomers and terrestrial observers alike.
The design features separate clutches on the Altitude and Azimuth axes and a panning arm that can be fixed in two different positions.
The movements are smooth and controllable.
Astronomy telescopes attach directly to the mount via a standard Vixen-type dovetail bar.
An L-bracket is included, so you can also attach a spotting scope or camera.
Includes lightweight aluminium tripod for maximum portability.
This mount is recommended for small to medium-aperture instruments up to the Skywatcher Skymax 127 Maksutov in size.

Good price - works great with my Skywatcher Explorer 150P 06 April 2024 | Chris
Really, it's kinda like a dobsonian on a tripod.

I am very pleased with this purchase.
The Product Information describes it very well and as well as very smooth action in both axes there is no backlash and the scope stays where it is pointed. I have a Vixen 80Mf f11.4 refractor mounted on it and if the OTA or mount is deliberately tapped the vibration dies down in a second or so, which is excellent.
It is quite compact with the legs collapsed when not in use and can be taken outside and set up with the minimum of fuss.
All in all, I'm very pleased with it.
