Hi everyone,

I'm seeking the equivalent dimension (as shown in the photo) of the Meade SCT giant field tripod? And can I please also ask, at what size 'scope is the giant field tripod supplied/used? ie is it 10" and larger, 12" and larger etc?

Photo is of my 8" LX90, as measured at its lowest height setting (ie with lower leg section fully retracted), and with the tripod legs set at their widest. My standard tripod as shown in the photo measures at 900mm.

I ask this because the house I'm about to move to has some narrow-ish gates and before purchasing a larger SCT (and tripod trolley), I'd like to get an idea of what size tripod I'd be dealing with.

My future purchase would be second-hand, non ACF -either an LX90 or LX200.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards, Dean
