Tripods and Mounts - Quality spotting scope tripod and telescope tripods assure the stability you require for terrestrial and astronomical observation. Our German Equatorial Mounts (GEM are some of the nicest we have seen, particularly the heavier models designed for the larger telescopes. If you plan to own both a larger and mid-sized telescope, select a tripod-GEM combination that will securely hold the largest telescope you expect to own. Of course, our tripods will supply a solid base for other brands of telescopes, too.

Optics - OpticsPlanet.com in-house astronomers tested numerous eyepieces, diagonals and Barlow lenses before making final selection. Our conclusion? You can spend a lot more for optical accessories without gaining a detectable increase in viewing sharpness. Unless specified otherwise, our optical accessories are standard 1.25" outer diameter. 

Lens Shades - It is always a wise decision to use a fitted lens shade with your telescope. Lens shades prevent annoying side light from affecting your image. Even more importantly, they can prevent accidental damage to your lenses and shield your precious optics from water and mist.

Motor Drives - Once again, our in-house astronomers tested available drives until they found the performance we demand and a price you will appreciate.
