Equatorial telescopes

— equatorial mounts include mounts that allow you to install the telescope in such a way that its axis of rotation from side to side is parallel to the earth's axis (respectively, the vertical guidance axis is perpendicular). The meaning of such an installation is to facilitate tracking of celestial objects moving across the sky due to the rotation of the Earth: an equatorial mount allows you to constantly keep the “target” in the field of view, evenly rotating the telescope along one of the axes. This feature is especially useful for astrophotography. Among the shortcomings of this option, it is worth noting the bulkiness, high cost and complexity of application (in particular, for normal operation, adjustment to the geographical latitude of the observation site is necessary).| equatorial | clear | Save List |
