iOptron CEM25EC GoTo mount with optical encoders, tripod and case
The new "Z" center-balanced mount design from iOptron offers more rigidity and less susceptibility to vibration, while at the same time providing more compact dimensions. All functions of a "normal" German mount are retained. The CEM25 is equipped with the sophisticated GoToNova control, with over 59,000 items in the data memory, large heated LC display and of course all the equipment features for astrophotography, such as P.E.C or autoguiding connection.

Optical encoders for outstanding tracking accuracy:
Another special feature of the CEM25-EC are optical encoders. As a result, the mount is able to provide a tracking accuracy of less than 0.3 arc seconds. In conjunction with the Polsucher and especially the electronic Einnordungshilfe the CEM25-EC is thus perfect for astrophotography without Guiding suitable.
