A wonderful little GEM

This product really has no comparison; no one else produces such a small and portable equatorial mount. Placed on a heavy-duty photo tripod, it makes an excellent platform for small telescopes and astrophotography. The best part is that it is so small that one can easily pack it up and take it on a trip.

Combined with the FS-60C, this makes an outstanding traveling observing package. As with all things Takahashi, it is superbly engineered and tracks extremely accurately.

Highly recommended.

German Equatorial Mount
Amazingly Compact
With the counterweight shaft removed, the mount fits in a space measuring about 18 by 20 by 9.5 centimeters (7 x 8 x 3.75 inches)
