Does it need a second counterweight to do astrophotography with a dslr maybe an autotracker?
It may or may not require an additional counterweight. If a DSLR camera is attached to the optical tube and the telescope is unable to balance, it is recommended to add an additional counterweight to avoid straining the motor(s).
