Visit HAE29B-EC iMate is the top-of-the-range version of iOptron's famous HAE29B mount. It incorporates a high-resolution encoder on AD axis (RA) for very good tracking, potentially without autoguiding for short focal lengths (for instruments over 700mm focal length I would still recommend autoguiding), in addition to Strain Wave Gear technology and on-board computer iMate. This mount is designed for demanding astrophotographers looking for maximum performance in an ultra-compact format.
The great advantage of the EC version is its presence of an encoder on the RA axisThe result is remarkable tracking accuracy, even without guidance. This makes it possible to achieve long exposures with a tracking quality rarely achieved in this weight category. Perfect for nomads, or those who want to lighten their setup without sacrificing performance.
