Astrophotographers love the Skywatcher NEQ6 Pro Computerized GoTo Telescope Mount due to its precise tracking performance, affordable price, and robust load capacity.
Since most astrophotography setups consist of multiple heavy pieces of equipment, an astrophotography mount must be capable of supporting hefty loads while also providing smooth, accurate tracking.
Backlash compensation and programmable PEC provide the responsiveness for guiding and the tracking accuracy needed for astrophotography. There's also a jack for a CCD autoguider built right into the NEQ6 Pro, so it's easy to add guided accuracy to all of your astrophotos.
Short unguided imaging is possible out of the box. Longer, deep exposure are made possible through the use of an autoguider using ST4 type commands or software autoguiding through many inexpensive CCD cameras.
