About this product

This new high-quality Alt-Azimuth mount is manufactured in Japan by Sightron.

It provides great flexibility and can be operated in three different modes.

• Conventional Alt-Azimuth
• Single Fork
• German Equatorial (requires an EQ Wedge)

With a maximum payload of 7kg and weighing only 1.45 kg, this highly portable mount is ideal for small to medium-sized telescopes.

Available in either black or silver anodising with a Vixen-style Saddle Clamp and two slow-motion handles.

This sturdy mount folds down to 240 x 80 x 90 mm, making it perfect for travel.

Movements are smooth and precise, enabling fine control of your telescope. 

A standard 3/8" tripod thread is situated on the base of the mount, thus ensuring its compatibility with a wide variety of tripods.

The Saddle Clamp can be removed to leave 2 x M6 threaded holes at 35mm centres.

This mount also has the advantage of operating in EQ mode, which, together with slow motion control, enables observation at high powers.

NOTE: For EQ use, you need an EQ wedge. We recommend the William Optics Wedge.
