NEQ3 & EQ5 SYNSCAN
Sky-Watcher offers simple solutions for users who would like
to attach their smaller telescope to a convenient computer-
ized system but do not wish to deal with the weight of the
HEQ5 or EQ6 mount. The NEQ3 and EQ5 SynScan mounts
use the same Go-To system found in the HEQ5 and EQ6 Pro
mounts. It allows you to point the telescope at a specific
object or even tour the skies at the touch of a button.
