Smooth aiming, effortless tracking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Skywatcher AZ-4 makes observing stars and nature easy. The separate clutches on elevation and azimuth axes give you complete control. You can move your telescope smoothly and aim precisely, without hiccups or jerks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Versatile mounting options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The mount comes with a standard Sky-Watcher swallowtail and an L-holder. This allows you to easily attach a spotting scope, camera or telescope tube. This way you use the AZ-4 flexibly, for observation or photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight and stable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The aluminum tripod holds your telescope firmly in place. It is light enough to transport easily, yet provides enough stability for telescopes up to 6.8 kg, such as the D150\/F1200 Reflector. This keeps your image stable and sharp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ready to use and comfortable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The panorama lever can be fixed in two positions. This allows you to aim your telescope intuitively and comfortably. Within minutes, you are ready to observe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
