Tele Vue Panoramic Alt-Az Telescope Mount Ashupgrades their lightweight Tele-Pod mount with the addition of a custom-made ash wood tripod to create the Panoramic Alt-Az Telescope Mount. It comes outfitted with their manual alt-az Tele-Pod head, which is configured as a dual-fork yoke mount that cradles your optical tube assembly (OTA) at its center of balance for smooth pan/tilt motion with greatly reduced vibrations.
The Panoramic is recommended for OTA apertures of up to 4" (100mm) and its custom-made ash wood tripod provides a rock-solid platform with natural vibration absorption and an accessory tray that provides a convenient place for eyepieces, filters, phones, and flashlights. The tripod adjusts from 38 to 62" and comes with metal spikes at the end of the feet to improve stability and rubber tips to cover the spikes.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Tube dimension ??
A: The Explore Scientific FirstLight 130mm f/4.6 Alt-Az Newtonian Telescope BH #EXFLN130NT • MFR #FL-N130600MAZ01 (OTA) is about 24" X 6"
Q: 2. Can I use it with a mount to connect my Sony a7Rii?
A: Yes, it would be possible to connect that camera to this telescope. However, this telescope is not a great choice to use a 3 thousand dollar camera with. But technically, yes, you could connect this using item 93625 and you would also need a Sony T-Ring. Celestron only offers T-Rings for Canon and Nikon currently.
Q: 3. Which Barlow lenses would you recommend for this scope?
A: I would recommend this Celestron Omni 2x Barlow Lens: https://bhpho.to/2ZeywLX
Q: 4. Is there a computerized tripod for the Explore Scientific Firstlight 130mm f/4.6 Alt-Az Newtonian Telescope?
A: The Explore Scientific FirstLight 130mm f/4.6 comes with the manual Twilight I Alt-Azimuth Mount. You could replace the manual mount with this computerized Explore Scientific iEXOS-100-2 PMC-Eight Equatorial Go-To Tracker System: https://bhpho.to/3qouVtc
Q: 5. what's the mount size?
A: There is no mounting socket at the bottom of the base to mount it on any tripod.
Q: 6. what does erect image viewing mean?
A: When you look at the moon through a straight telescope (refactor) the moon will be upside down in the eyepiece. When you take a picture with a digital camera the image will be projected on to the senor upside down, the camera's software will transpose it correctly on the LCD screen. A erecting prism on a telescope or binocular does the same thing.
Q: 7. As a beginner, are there any essential accessories I should consider?
A: This is a kit which includes the most essential accessory required, a tripod. You really would not need anything else to get up and running.
Q: 8. Cuanto cuesta este telescopio con envio incluido a Lagos De Moreno, Mxico y que tal se ve jupiter y sus lunas?

Q: 9. Hi I brought my daughter the telescope and have no idea how to set it up or even how to use it. The lady at the store said just look through the finder and that’s it. Well that’s not the case cause we can’t see anything and don’t know what we are doing. Can you help please?

Q: 10. Is chromatic aberration is a big problem for this Telescope?
A: The Inspire 100AZ telescope is an achromatic refractor design, so there will be a degree of chromatic aberration, but the views are highly acceptable.
