Product Description
Ultra-stable wedge for 8-Inch, 10-Inch, 12-Inch, & 14-Inch LX200 Telescopes. A long exposure necessity. An Equatorial Wedge is for exposures longer than about 5 minutes (under 5 minutes, a wedge is not necessary). A wedge permits precise polar alignment of your telescope in equatorial mode (compared to Alt/Az mode). This eliminates field rotation in long-exposure photographs by allowing you to align the telescope’s axis of rotation with the Earth’s axis of rotation. Die cast aluminum wedges include fine adjusters, no-tool knobs, and a compass for faster aligning on the pole. Choose the appropriate 8-Inch EQ Wedge or our extra heavy duty Ultra-Wedge.
