No wiggling, no shifting. You immediately create a stable setup so that your camera keeps tracking smoothly. You'll notice this immediately in your photos: stars stay round, even during long exposures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"34091\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-50mm-Geleidingsbuisklemmen-2.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics 50mm guide tube clamps set on a Vixen-style dovetail\" class=\"wp-image-34091\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Easy assembly without hassle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You quickly screw the rings onto your tube rings or prism bar. Everything clicks together logically. The plastic points on the screws protect your tracking scope, so there are no scratches. You don't have to force anything; the rings do the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find a guide star faster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The adjustable suspension makes it easy to aim your tracking scope. So you find a bright guiding star faster. As a result, your guiding starts faster and your tracking stays quieter. You pick up more detail and less distortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"34092\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-50mm-Geleidingsbuisklemmen-3.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics 50mm tracking scope rings front view with set screws\" class=\"wp-image-34092\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perfect match for William Optics viewfinders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These rings fit not only 50 mm tracking scopes, but also perfectly on William Optics viewfinders of the ZenithStar and Gran Turismo series. You place them directly on the WO mount and your setup is immediately solid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compact, light and built for precision<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The low weight does not make your overall setup top-heavy. Ideal for smaller mounts that need to stay light. You get a tightly finished system that just works, night after night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>General<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Type<\/td><td>Guiding<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Design<\/td><td>Tracking scope rings<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Inner diameter (mm)<\/td><td>50<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Weight (g)<\/td><td>260<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>William Optics 50mm comes as a set of two tracking scope rings with a Vixen-style prism bar and set screws with plastic tip for scratch-free mounting. \u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":97514,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[643],"product_cat":[56,501],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-34090","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-william-optics","product_cat-telescoop-accessoires","product_cat-red-dot-finders-en-reflex-sights","product_shipping_class-licht","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":107604,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/televue-tele-pod-advanced-azimutale-montering\/","url_meta":{"origin":34090,"position":0},"title":"TeleVue Tele-Pod Advanced \u2013 Azimuth Mount","author":"Abdullah Ibrar","date":"28-04-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"TeleVue Tele-Pod Advanced \u2013 azimutale montering wordt geleverd met aluminium statief, transporttas en biedt soepele bediening voor lichte telescopen. \u00a0","rel":"","context":"Similar post","block_context":{"text":"Similar post","link":""},"img":{"alt_text":"TeleVue Montering Tele-Pod Advanced close-up van de azimutale montagekop op zwart geanodiseerd aluminium statief met blauwe accentring op witte achtergrond","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":104875,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/levenhuk-labzz-t3\/","url_meta":{"origin":34090,"position":1},"title":"Levenhuk LabZZ T3 - 60\/700 Refractor","author":"Abdullah Ibrar","date":"24-03-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"Levenhuk LabZZ T3 - 60\/700 Refractor comes with 4mm eyepiece, 12.5mm eyepiece, 1.5x eyepiece, 3x Barlow lens, 5x optical viewfinder, zenith mirror and aluminum tripod with accessory tray.","rel":"","context":"Similar post","block_context":{"text":"Similar post","link":""},"img":{"alt_text":"Levenhuk LabZZ T3 - 60\/700 Refractor aluminium statief met accessoirebak","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Levenhuk-LabZZ-T3-60700-Refractor-1.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200},"classes":[]},{"id":106246,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/levenhuk-discovery-spark-767-az\/","url_meta":{"origin":34090,"position":2},"title":"Levenhuk Discovery Spark 767 AZ \u2013 76\/700 Newtonian Reflector","author":"Abdullah Ibrar","date":"05-04-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"The Levenhuk Discovery Spark 767 AZ \u2013 76\/700 Newtonian reflector comes with SR4mm, H12.5mm, and H20mm eyepieces, a 2x Barlow lens, an optical finder, an aluminum tripod with an accessory tray, and the colorful knowledge book \u201cSpace.
