Bonjour , Je voudrai savoir si la monture HEQ5 ne peine pas trop avec un tube aussi lourd ? car je vois partout qu'il faut au moins une EQ6 pour supporter un tube 250/1200. Pouvez-vous m'en dire plus a ce sujet ? Merci

Store response | 13/07/2020

Bonsoir, La monture pourrait vous servir même si ce n'est que la limite. Il est normalement recommandé de ne pas dépasser 20 à 30% de la capacité de charge de la monture. La capacité de charge maximale du HEQ5 est de 18 kg. Si c'est pour l'observation, ça peut marcher, mais si vous voulez faire de l'astrophotographie, je ne le recommanderais pas car ce sera trop lourd et ça vibrerait beaucoup. Salutations, Carlos
