Mounts and Tripods

Combined with the aperture of 300mm and focal length of 1500mm, this scope is great for prime-focus photography. Higher quality images can be achieved with the optional coma corrector.

For eight years, Celestron’s workhorse CGEM mount lineup has been the German Equatorial backbone for telescopes ranging from 6 to 11 inches of aperture. Since that time, many more astro-imagers and planetarium controlled setups have emerged as backyard telescope technology has evolved. Celestron’s engineering team applied their years of experience designing German Equatorial mounts to the all-new CGX EQ, a culmination of all the advancements made to our technologies, value, and ease-of-use.

• Install this motor drive on your AstroMaster or PowerSeeker equatorially mounted telescope and start tracking the stars!
• Right Ascension tracking compensates for the Earth’s rotation
• Can be used in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere
• For Celestron CG-2 and CG-3 equatorial mounts

The Bushnell Advanced Titanium model features three-position leg angle adjustment, three-way pan head, two pan and tilt handles and a gearless reversible center column.
