Product description

The Vixen Polarie mount:

A new innovative concept for celestial tracking for wide field astrophotography with pin-sharp stars. An extremely simple and compact design for accomplishing different tasks anywhere in the world. Mount your camera on your tripod with the Polarie or take advantage of the stable Polarie tripod that is easy to use, lightweight and portable. The polar finder scope gives precise alignment on the celestial pole for long exposure astrophotography.

Please note that this is not a 'classic' mount, but rather an equatorial attachment for a camera tripod.
