Sky-Watcher AZ-EQ6 Pro: an ultra-powerful hybrid mount<\/h3>\n

Visit Sky-Watcher AZ-EQ6 Pro<\/strong> is an exceptional mount that combines the precision of equatorial with the simplicity of azimuthal. Thanks to its robust, versatile design, it is equally suited to long exposure astrophotography and visual observation - solo or with two instruments simultaneously.<\/p>\n

With an impressive load capacity of 20 kg (44 lbs)<\/strong>The AZ-EQ6 is the perfect mount for demanding optical tubes. Whether you want to photograph nebulae for hours or organize a public event with two instruments, the AZ-EQ6 is the ideal mount.<\/p>\n

3 modes in a single frame<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Equatorial (EQ)<\/strong> perfect for astrophotography with precise tracking<\/li>\n
  • Azimutal (AZ)<\/strong> ideal for fast, intuitive visual observation<\/li>\n
  • Double OTA<\/strong> Mount two telescopes in parallel using the two Vixen\/Losmandy saddles included.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Advanced technology for precise tracking<\/h3>\n

    Equipped with silent stepper motors<\/strong> with belt drive<\/strong>the frame virtually eliminates mechanical play. The PPEC (Permanent Periodic Error Correction)<\/strong> is used to refine tracking, reducing the periodic error to just \u00b15 arcseconds.<\/p>\n

    Visit Freedom Find\u2122 dual encoders<\/strong> allow the mount to be moved manually without losing GoTo alignment - a rare freedom in this range.<\/p>\n

    Comfort and connectivity<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Integrated USB-B port<\/strong> for PC control via SynScan Pro<\/em><\/li>\n
    • Database of 42,900 objects<\/strong> via SynScan snowshoe<\/li>\n
    • Simplified polar alignment<\/strong> with illuminated polar viewfinder and SynScan assistance<\/li>\n
    • SNAP shutter control<\/strong> for automated photo release<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Ideal for public events<\/h3>\n

      The dual OTA function is perfect for astronomical animations<\/strong> You can choose to observe the same target with two different focal points, or double the number of people watching without waiting. Ideal for keeping children's (and parents') attention captivated!<\/p>\n
