Sky-Watcher EQ Pro Series Mounts

Sky-Watcher EQ Pro series mounts are computerized German equatorial mounts that form the backbone of many astrophotography setups. The range runs from the HEQ5, HEQ5-R and HEQ5i to the EQ-AL55i Pro and EQ6-R Pro, up to the observatory-grade EQ8-R and EQ8-Rh, offered as mount head only or with pier tripod.

Matching counterweights, including the 22 pound EQ8-R weight, polar scopes and pier extensions are also in this collection.
