For astrophotography, a 4-inch refractor on a German equatorial mount is very popular, and you don\u2019t want to have to re-adjust that mount every time. The Telegizmos T3-R4 covers such an arrangement. The case is part of the 365 series, for telescopes that are used outdoors all year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cover is intended for a 4-inch refractor on an equatorial mount. If you are still looking for a suitable telescope for such an arrangement, please see telescopes for astrophotography<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Measure your setup in parking position, including the hood, viewfinder, camera and auto-guide. Compare that with the dimensions of the case. Tie up any dangling cables so the case fits snugly over them. Let the telescope dry before covering it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a stand for the tripod Tripod case by Telegizmos<\/a>. If you only want to cover the lens, there is the protective cap for a 4 inch lens<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cover from the 365 series by Telegizmos for a 4 inch refractor
