3. Meade Instruments X-Wedge Equatorial Wedge Wedge

Meade Instruments X-Wedge Equatorial Wedge Brand NewIncludes One Year Warranty Product # 07028 The Meade Instruments X-Wedge Equatorial Wedge allows for secure and stable mounting with exceptional vibration damping of larger Meade SC and ACF telescopes. It is constructed from ultra-rigid aircraft grade aluminum with smooth, accurate altitude and azimuth adjustments. Equatorial Wedge Features: Wedge Exceptional Vibration Dampening Ultra-Rigid Aircraft Grade Aluminum For Long Exposure Astrophotography & Imaging

Meade X-Wedge for LX200 and LX600 TelescopesMeade X-Wedge #07028. For long exposure astrophotography and imaging with Meade LX200 and LX600 models. This extremely heavy duty wedge allows for secure and stable mounting with exceptional vibration damping of larger Meade SC and ACF telescopes.This precision CNC machined wedge is constructed from ultra-rigid aircraft grade aluminum with smooth accurate altitude and azimuth adjustments. Thirty percent more stable than competing equatorial wedges the X-Wedge sets a new standard for equatorial stability while allowing for tracking from horizon to horizon without need of any meridian flip such as required by German Equatorial Mounts.For use with the Meade field tripods as supplied with all compatible models including 10 through 14" diameter LX200 and LX600 telescopes. Also compatible with LX90 models and discontinued models LX50 LX200 "Classic" and RCX400. Wedge can also be pier mounted (hardware not included).Equatorial mounting is required for astrophotography and imaging exposures longer than about 5 minutes. The Meade X-Wedge is mounted between a telescope and the tripod to accomplish the tilt of an equatorial type mount that matches the observers latitude and permits precise polar alignment of your telescope. The wedge allows the astrophotographer to align the telescopes axis of rotation with the Earths axis of rotation. This alignment eliminates stars in your long exposure photograph from appearing as a long arc trail or streak due to an effect known as field rotation. For images under approximately 5 minutes a wedge is not necessary the telescope may be mounted in the altitude-azimuth (alt-az) configuration normally used for visual observation.Product carries full one year Meade limited factory warranty.

8. Meade Instruments LX850 German Equatorial Mount Telescope Mount

Meade Instruments LX850 German Equatorial Mount Brand NewIncludes One Year Warranty Product # 37-0850-00 The Meade Instruments LX850 German Equatorial Mount is constructed of machined stainless steel and aircraft grade aluminum is a rock solid platform for the most demanding applications. This mount features precision roller bearings on each axis, a 1.75 stainless steel RA shaft, 5.8" main gears, fine manual adjustment controls on both axis, illuminated reticle output port, telescope to computer USB cable and AutoStar Suite software. The fully height adjustable (29 to 45") tripod features massive 3" diameter stainless steel legs for rock steady performance. The StarLock is the revolutionary new technology that makes target acquisition on imaging sensor and accurate guiding during exposures completely automatic. It uses an 80mm for 5 optic and two camera sensor system to provide computer assisted polar alignment using the drift method with LightSwitch technology. Once aligned the StarLock is guiding the mount in real time, and even automatically programs periodic error correction, achieving a guiding accuracy of up to 1 arcsecond in good seeing and with the capability of guiding on stars as faint as 11th magnitude. The LX850 features DC-servo motors on each axis with a maximum slew speed of 3 degrees per second, allowing slewing 180 degrees to the opposite side of the sky in one minute flat. Fine slewing and photographic guiding speeds can be adjusted from .01x to 1x sidereal, with faster slewing at 2x, 8x, 16x, or 1/4, 1/2, 1 or 3 degrees per second. The mount and all electronics are externally powered by the Universal Power Supply (12V). The mount includes both mechanical locks and slow motion manual controls in both axis if for some reason without power.
