Altaz

Altaz mounts move corresponding to altitude (up-and-down) and azimuth (side-to-side). Altaz mounts are great because they tend to be lightweight and easier to assemble and setup, but they aren't recommended for astrophotography (use German Equatorial instead) or observing at zenith.

  4. Vixen - Porta II Mount with Motor

    Vixen - Porta II Mount with Motor

    For so many years the beginning astronomer was forced to buy a mount that was unstable and almost useless when viewing at high power. More often than not, the frustration of using an unstable mount resulted in the telescope only being used for one night and being left in a closet to collect dust. The Porta mount changed all that. It is one of Vixen's proudest designs.
