Telescope Equatorial Mount –
CG-3 – #91503
A durable, rigid, German equatorial mount with a
wooden tripod, offering both affordability and
high quality. Designed as an excellent and inex-
pensive upgrade option when you’re ready to
move to a sturdier mount for your beginning
telescope. R.A. and DEC setting circles, a latitude
scale, slow motion controls and a handy accessory
tray are included. This is the same mount
Celestron uses with the Firstscope 80EQ and 114
telescopes.
Telescope Equatorial Mount – CG-4 – #91510
The CG-4 mount is a very rigid German equatorial mount. A counterweight,
latitude scale, setting circles and slow motion controls on both axes are
standard. The adjustable height aluminum, very
rigid tripod has excellent damping characteristics
and a handy accessory tray. It is the same mount as
used on Celestron HD telescopes.
Optional motor drives and a polar alignment
finderscope are available.
Telescope Equatorial Mount –
CG-5 – #91515
The CG-5 EQ mount is the newest generation of
Celestron’s German mounts (replaces the GP
mount). Both axes of the equatorial mount have
precision worm gears for extremely smooth motion.
It is a step up from the CG-4.
This heavy duty mount delivers jitter-free images
easily and the adjustable height aluminum, very
rigid tripod has excellent damping characteristics
and a convenient accessory tray.
Included are setting circles on both axes, slow-
motion controls and latitude scale. An adjustable
counterweight makes it easy to point, balance and
use.
An optional polar alignment scope for fast polar
alignment as well as motor drives are available for
easy tracking.
