Product description

The tripod is an often overlooked part of a telescope system. But, if the tripod doesn't provide sufficient stability, this becomes obvious during observation. By choosing a high-quality tripod, the telescope’s capabilities and the joy of observing can be considerably improved.

This tripod's light weight and compact size make it the ideal travel companion. However, with a load capacity of 50kg, using it with large mounts and telescopes is no issue.

For improved stability you can use the supplied weight containers. Simply attach these to the tripod legs and fill them with sand or stones, for example.

Our expert comment:

This tripod with attached ZWO PE200 column extension fits perfectly into the Oklop tripod bag 56173. With the 4 cm shorter ZWO PIer Extension PE160 for AM5 you can extend the tripod legs a little so that the tripod sits snugly in the bag without sliding around.
