Product Description
The design put of the iOptron ZEQ25GT increases stability while maintaining a 27 Ib payload due to its design! Some other neat features the observer might find useful is an adjustable counterweight bar and quick polar aligning with no blockage by the declination shaft.
The GOTO Technology included by iOptron is simply outstanding with its remarkable accuracy. There is a 59,000 celestial object database and the Go2Nova Hand Controller is easy to use. The ZEQ25 equatorial telescope mount offers a new category of viewing and astrophotography.
