Transportable column for travelling
A glance at your astrophotograph: Are you once again not completely satisfied? This is often due to a tripod which is not sturdy enough. Using the Omegon Pro Column, you can mount your telescope considerably more sturdily. A fixed middle column and widely spread legs provide the necessary secure hold for your equipment. Apart from this, it is ultra-transportable and suitable for every observation site.

Levelling screws for uneven surfaces
We all know that a perfectly-level surface can never be found in a field. Tasks which are simple using a tripod can become challenging when using a mobile column. But with the Omegon Pro Column, you can mount the entire telescope precisely and evenly. This is provided by an automatic levelling system for all legs: moving plates and height-adjustable lockable screws. All components are naturally rust-proof and bravely face the dew in the meadow.
A column for every location you want
A tripod is versatile, a column heavy and durable? This statement belongs in the past. You no longer have to use your telescope on a fixed column in the garden. Even if you live in a city flat and cannot enjoy using a fixed telescope in your garden, everyone can now use a sturdy column. Simply drive to your observation site. This simple folding column is now always in your bag along with your telescope.
