Sky-Watcher EQM-35 PRO SynScan: the ideal modular equatorial mount for travel and astrophotography

Visit Sky-Watcher EQM-35 PRO SynScan is a modern, versatile equatorial mount designed to offer the best compromise between transportability, precision and load capacity. Thanks to its innovative modular design, it can function both as a full-fledged Go-To equatorial mount or as a lightweight mount dedicated to nomadic astrophotography.

This dual use makes it a particularly interesting solution for astronomers wishing to practice both :

  • Visual observation
  • Astrophotography
  • Astronomical travel
  • Quick field trips

The EQM-35 PRO incorporates some of the aesthetic features of the EQ3 PRO, but with greatly improved mechanics offering greater stability and superior precision.

Unique modular design

The special feature of EQM-35 PRO is its modular design.

In full configuration, with axes :

  • R.A. (right ascension)
  • DEC (declination)

the mount functions as a true classic Go-To equatorial mount with :

  • Two-axis motorized tracking
  • Automatic Go-To pointing
  • Visual load capacity up to 10 kg

But for travel or light astrophotography, it is possible to :

  • Remove DEC axle completely
  • Remove counterweights
  • Significantly reduce total weight

In this configuration, the mount functions as a more robust version of a Star Adventurer, perfect for cameras and small photo setups.

Excellent tracking accuracy

The EQM-35 PRO benefits from a much more advanced mechanical design than the previous EQ3.

In particular, it features :

  • A large 92.5 mm RA gear wheel
  • 180 teeth on the RA axis
  • Steel worm gear

This mechanical improvement enables :

  • More precise tracking
  • Less vibration
  • Greater stability
  • Significant reduction in periodic error

High-performance Go-To SynScan system

The frame is equipped with the famous SynScan™ Go-To, for automatic pointing of more than 42,900 celestial objects.

The catalog includes :

  • Messier
  • NGC
  • IC
  • Planets
  • Deep sky objects

The system also offers :

  • Software correction of mechanical errors
  • Firmware update via Internet
  • PC compatibility

Pointing accuracy can reach approximately 1 minute of arc.

Motorized tracking and self-guidance

The EQM-35 PRO features :

  • High-precision stepper motors
  • 64-step micro-step drive
  • ST-4 autoguider port

Available guide speeds :

  • 0,25x
  • 0,5x
  • 0,75x
  • 1x

Tracking speeds :

  • Sidereal
  • Lunar
  • Solar

Maximum travel speed reaches 3.4° per second.

PEC correction and astrophotography

The frame also includes :

  • Periodic error correction (PEC)
  • Double or single-axis tracking

These functions enable :

  • Cleaner long exposures
  • Improved autosteering
  • Greater photo precision

This makes it an excellent introduction to serious astrophotography.

Ideal frame for travel

One of the great advantages of the EQM-35 PRO is its mobility.

The weight of the head alone :

  • 4.38 kg in full configuration
  • 3.28 kg with DEC axis removed

The stainless steel tripod from 1,75″ provides excellent stability while remaining relatively portable.

This combination makes the EQM-35 PRO an excellent frame:

  • For travel
  • For fast exits
  • For astrophotographers on the move

Camera compatibility

In light configuration, the frame can accommodate :

  • DSLR or hybrid camera
  • A photo head
  • A Star Adventurer square

It then functions as a high-performance tracking platform for :

  • Milky Way
  • Large field
  • Night landscapes
  • Luminous nebulae
