BRESSER photo mount with field tripod u. Polwiege
Do you already own a photo camera and would like to create impressive pictures of the night sky with the help of the long exposure or even make time-lapse pictures with little effort?

Then the BRESSER photo mount is the ideal base. Not only for beginners in astrophotography, this mount is particularly well suited, but also the experts swear by a compact and easy-to-use mount to automatically compensate for the natural rotation of the earth. The built-in tracking motor rotates the saddle-mounted camera precisely against the earth's rotation and thus the stars remain punctiform even with long exposures.

Which cameras are basically suitable for use with the BRESSER photo mount?

All cameras with 1/4 "(6.3mm) tripod connection thread and bulb length" B "for long exposure.
 
The Bresser photo mount is designed for a camera with lens of max. 2.5 kg total weight to carry and track. Bright, wide-angle lenses are ideal for the beginning, because the requirements for tracking accuracy increase with increasing focal length and exposure time. Thus, a shot with wide-angle lens without problems can be exposed for up to several minutes and the stars remain punctiform. For example, a 200mm Telesobjektiv, the polar alignment of the photo mount must then be exactly right. But thanks to the optical and illuminated Polsucher this is done quickly. Typical achievable exposure times with good tracking accuracy are: 16mm-35mm wide-angle lens: 10 minutes (600sec.), 200mm telephoto lens: 5 minutes (300sec.)

After setting up the lightweight and compact photo mount, simply set the approximate latitude (pole height) to Scala and aim through the illuminated pole finder telescope the Polarstern. Then mount the camera with the photo lens using the quick release plate on the supplied ball head. With the ball head, the camera can be aligned at any time on any section of the sky and determine. As soon as the tracking motor is switched on, long-time exposure can be started immediately. This does not even take 5 minutes ...

The tracking is performed by a precise stepper motor, which can be moved via the hand box with 2 or 32 times the speed in the forward and reverse. Thus, the sky section can be adjusted even more precisely. Low power consumption allows up to 50 hours of operation with just one battery charge.

The height-adjustable stainless steel tripod is an extremely stable base for the BRESSER photo mount. Thanks to the circular level integrated into the tripod head, even the leveling of the photo mount is child's play. However, if you already own a sturdy photo tripod with a video tilt head, you can use the photo mount's head directly with the 1/4 "& 3/8" photo thread holes. The pole height (latitude) is then adjusted by the video tilt head. The photo-mount and the tripod with Polwiege are also available separately - Product No .: 4964111 u. 4964112
