Alt-Azimuth Pronto Mount

These short-tube, wide-field telescopes work well as fixed aperture lenses for DSLR terrestrial photography and astrophotography.  They are useful for taking pictures of nature and lunar and solar eclipses because of their "fast" focal ratios.  The well-designed and user-friendly AZ PRONTO Alt-Azimuth mount offers accurate tracking control via its slow-motion cables on both the horizontal (azimuth) and vertical (altitude) axes, as well as outstanding stability with the included deluxe stainless steel tripod.  A 21.5 cm extension tube is included for extra working height if needed.   For novices or more seasoned observers looking for a handy grab-and-go telescope, this highly capable, user-friendly telescope and mount set is highly recommended.  Use the included Smartphone Camera Adaptor to take pictures of the stars with your smartphone!

Air-Spaced Two-Element Achromatic Refractors
An ordinary single lens brings distinct wavelengths of light to different focal points.
All Sky-Watcher Refractors are constructed using air-spaced two-element lenses, which reduce chromatic aberration more than regular doublet lenses.
