Is the eq3 the same mount as the Celestron CG-4?

Hi all,

Just a quick question, is the Skywatcher EQ3 mount the same as the Celestron CG- 4? I've got an EQ3 and I can pick up a polar alignment scope cheaply for it if it is the same as the CG-4. A dual axis drive kit too.

Cheers,

Mental.

Hi Alex-I have an EQ3 Pro, and I just looked at a photo of the CG4-they look to be the same mount.

Thanks Laurie, my suspisions too.
