The full-length #884 Deluxe Field Tripod is constructed of strong, lightweight steel, and provides a rigid mounting platform for virtually any observing application with the ETX-90EC, ETX-105EC, or ETX-125EC.
Tripod height is continuously adjustable from 25" to 43" to allow for standing or seated observations. A graduated scale for elevation angle permits precise polar alignment of the telescope's fork mount for astronomical applications with the standard-equipment Electronic Controller; elevation angle can be fixed at any observing latitude between 20° and 90°.
For Autostar applications, or for land viewing, where altazimuth orientation of the telescope is desirable, the tripod head tilts and locks to 90°. Net tripod weight is 11 lbs. Included with the tripod is a custom-fitted carry bag with strap, handles and pocket for accessories.

Comments about Meade Deluxe Field Tripod:
and am sorry I didn't get it sooner.
It's easy to adjust, sturdy.
Fits the telescope perfectly and solidly - as it should.
