iOptron CEM70 Mount GoTo: Powerful Mount for the Serious Photo Setup<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The iOptron CEM70 is a center-balanced equatorial GoTo mount with a load capacity of 31.8 kg (70 lbs), excluding the counterweight, and a head weight of 13.6 kg (30 lbs). The weight is centered directly above the center of the tripod or column, which gives this mid-range mount its characteristic stability and tracking accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This base configuration includes everything for a serious photography setup: built-in iPolar, GPS, cable management, a 9.5 kg counterweight, and the mount's transport case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For heavier tubes, you simply extend the counterweight; the rod carries multiple weights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GoTo with GPS and heated hand controls<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Go2Nova 8407+ hand controller contains over 200,000 objects and has a display heater for cold nights. The built-in 32-channel GPS automatically sets the time and position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The adjustable counterweight shaft works down to the equator and the magnetically loaded gear system engages with large levers, even with gloves on. Autoguiding is possible via the ST-4 port.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Cable management for complete photo setups<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The internal cable management offers, among other things, two 12V outputs and three USB 2.0 ports on the head. You can connect your camera, filter wheel, and focuser on top, without dangling cables that can snag during rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wide dual saddle accommodates both Vixen and Losmandy rails. The mount is supplied without a tripod; the LiteRoc tripod for the CEM60\/70 or a Tri-Pier is the appropriate base.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Align with iPolar<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The built-in iPolar electronic polar finder displays the celestial pole on your laptop and calculates with date, time, and refraction. Within minutes, this heavy mount will be precisely aligned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
