Skywatcher CQ350 PRO SynScan GoTo Mount - Head only
Skywatcher CQ350 PRO SynScan GoTo mount, with a load capacity of 35 kg, intermediate belt drive and new design with multi-connectivity.
The needs of today's astrophotographers move at the speed of light; it is essential to meet increasingly specific requirements and develop solutions to improve photography and observation sessions for those of us who love the stars and the universe.
Skywatcher CQ 350 PRO is an equatorial mount with a load capacity of 35 kg, positioned between the EQ8-R and EQ6-R models.
Skywatcher engineers wanted to implement a sophisticated and comprehensive connectivity system in the mount, which includes: 4 USB ports, 1 SNAP, 1 power input port, 3 power output ports, 1 hand control port and 1 autoguide port, as well as 6 auxiliary ports.
The intermediate belt drive and the generous size of the worm gears and ring gears make the Skywatcher CQ350 SynScan mount ideal for astrophotography, both planetary and deep sky.
The internal cable management, as well as the remarkable load capacity of 35 kg, make the Skywatcher CQ350 SynScan mount ideal for use in small observatories.
