Sky-Watcher Mount AZ-Pronto (55214)

Sky-Watcher AZ Pronto is a lightweight and portable Alt-Azimuth mount, ideal for quick, no-fuss grab-and-go astronomy as well as daytime terrestrial observations. Made from cast aluminum, it is designed to hold small telescopes up to 3 kg with a 45 mm dovetail bar.

The aluminum tripod has telescopic legs that can be extended and securely clamped in place with integrated leg locks.

The mount includes two flexible slow-motion cables, one for vertical and one for horizontal control. These provide smooth fine motion adjustments and can be positioned in two different locations on each axis, making it convenient for both refractor and reflector telescopes.

In addition to fine adjustments, the mount can be moved manually in both axes for quick panning and elevation changes. It offers accurate and easy tracking of distant moving objects, making it a well-engineered and highly convenient grab-and-go mount suitable for both astronomy and terrestrial use.
