Sold
Price: $775.00
Payment method: PayPal
Item condition: 9+ Shows little or no signs of wear
I am selling my Astrotrac astrophotography tracking system (to fund some other purchases). The tracking mount is the Astrotrac TT320X-AG Tracking Mount with Auto-Guiding Port for Digital DSLR Cameras, which includes an Astrotrac Illuminated Polar Scope, 12 Volt Car Battery Adapter, and 8xAA Battery Holder. Included in this sale are the Astrotrac TW3100 Portable Pier Wedge and two small Gura Gear accessory pouches to hold some of the smaller parts (e.g., mounting screws). I have replaced the light on the Polar Scope with a better one made by Meade. This system is in excellent condition, and was successfully used just three days ago (see final image below). To use this system, first mount it on a sturdy tripod, and then add a ballhead with a camera on it. Printed instructions for using the tracking mount, wedge, and polar scope will be included in the sale. This is a wonderful system to start doing basic Astrophotography. For more information on this, see the following Fred Miranda thread on the use of this system:
