Review Summary
This easy to use, versatile telescope mount is designed with several modules that are joined together to produce the highly portable Advanced Polaris equatorial mount. The newest equatorial mount from Vixen can be transformed into many configurations. You can customize Vixen's New Advanced Polaris (AP) Equatorial Mount to meet your observing needs. Ideally suited for both beginners, who want a simple to use equatorial mount and experienced observers, who want a simple Grab and Go Equatorial Mount.
The Advanced Polaris Mount securely supports your telescope for comfortable night sky observing. With its friction control system, the mount can be quickly moved to your target object. A wide selection of accessories and modules are available to customize the Advanced Polaris mount. The Advanced Polaris Telescope Mount has slow motion RA and DEC controls for manual control. The ED 80SF Telescope was initially listed as an entry level APO, but now with so many astronomers giving them such glowing reviews, it appears that they will need to reclassify this product!
The ED80Sf refractor telescope features high-grade glass and quality components. Multi coated optics for crisp clear views. Coupled with a medium f/7.5 focal ratio, the ED 80Sf telescope delivers a sharp, color-free image of high contrast. At only 22.4", this is Vixen ultimate grab-n-go APO travel scope. The ED80Sf telescope comes complete with Aluminum Case, Flip Mirror, finder Scope and Rings. Add Vixen's new Focal Reducer.
