the Kenko Single-axis tracking mount -- a
compact, portable, easy-to-use, precision
tracking mount, perfect for the beginner
starting out in astrophotography with wide
angle lenses.
Of special note is the factory-aligned, highly accurate polar axis finder. The polar axis scope is actually aligned twice -- once when the scope is assembled, and again when it is installed in the mount. As an integral part of the mount, it retains its accuracy and provides a quick, and reliable method of aligning the Kenko mount.
Experienced observers will also find it useful
as a second mount for travel or as an
additional platform for cameras or a
lightweight scope. While you observe or
photograph with your primary system, the Kenko
mount can be used to capture wide angle
panoramas, patrol for meteors, or for testing
new films, filters, and camera lenses.
