The new SKYWATCHER AZ-EQ6 SYNSCAN mount offers optimum stability and pointing precision for a wide range of heavy duty professional photography and video equipment. It is a hybrid mount with the possibility to work in Altazimuthal format for general use and also in Equatorial format for astrophotography. The SKYWATCHER AZ-EQ6 SYNSCAN mount is supplied with the SYNSCAN control knob that includes dual firmware for both AZ and EQ formats. It can track and locate more than 42,900 celestial objects stored in its database.
The SKYWATCHER AZ-EQ6 SYNSCAN mount is capable of carrying heavy professional photography or video equipment. It is also very easy to transport and efficient thanks to its weight of only 15Kg and its load capacity of 25Kg (excluding the counterweight).
Tracking made easy -- Freedom Find™
With the patented FREEDOM FIND (dual-encoder) technology the telescope can be moved either manually or electronically, on both axes and without losing information about its position or alignment. After moving to a new object, the telescope will automatically start tracking the new object precisely. There will be no need to re-align the telescope during the entire observing session. This technological feature is very positively valued by Telescopiomania as it incorporates a functionality that until now was only available to users with professional mounts.
