Sky-Watcher EQ6 SynTrek - parallactic mount with tracking for telescopes up to 20 kg

The EQ-6 from Sky-Watcher has been in this form since 2001, so it's almost a classic.

This mount is available in two variants:
 
- the SynScan / SkyScan - is equipped with a Goto control

Not only is it a rock solid base for the observations, it also allows sophisticated astrophotography. With the mount is with large devices an accurate long exposure possible. This will allow you to successfully take pictures of nebula objects and galaxies, moon and planetary images are no problem.
It offers all the amenities of a fully equipped, computerized GoTo mount. For astrophotographers it is a good choice.

The mount offers a fully equipped GoTo system with quiet stepper motors. The mount can be loaded with telescopes up to approx. 20 kg dead weight by means of a ball-bearing RA axle. The height-adjustable stainless steel stand also ensures the necessary stability.


With a load capacity of 20 kg (of course, depending on the length and size of the instrument), this mount can also be used for larger Newton and refractors.
