The Porta II is a solid altazimuth mount with a 20lb payload capacity and features slow motion flexible handles to minimize vibrations and keep your view sharp. This is very useful in searching and tracking celestial objects. The mount head is easily removed to allow for a switch to a heavier tripod. In addition, this is a great mount for terrestrial viewing. With no locks or clutches, our gear drives make it a simple matter to precisely track a planet or a ship on the horizon by turning the elevation and or azimuth control handles.
