Easily attach your camera to a computer-controlled tracking mount with this Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer 2i Pro Pack and Oben Mini Ball Head Kit from B&H. Sky-Watcher's Star Adventurer 2i Mount Head and Equatorial Wedge Base can be attached to a standard photo tripod and allows you to track celestial objects for sharp, long exposure photos. The Mini Ball Head, with its Arca-style quick release, provides a simple way to mount your camera on the Adventurer 21—replace the mount head's optical tube bracket with its ball head adapter, screw on the Oben ball head, and attach your DSLR or mirrorless for astrophotography.
With Sky Watcher's Star Adventurer Equatorial Wedge Base users can adapt a standard photo tripod for use with the Star Adventurer mount. The wedge mounts on any tripod with a 3/8"-16 or 1/4"-20 screw and allows users to accurately set the observation location's latitude for polar alignment. The wedge features a Vixen-style dovetail saddle, and a dovetail plate with a screw to attach the Star Adventurer mount.
The Sky Watcher Star Adventurer Dec Bracket can be used to mount telescope optical tube assemblies (OTAs) onto a Star Adventurer mount. The bracket has a Vixen-style dovetail plate on the bottom that fits onto the mount's saddle, the flat plate on one end features a 1/4"-20 screw for the OTA and on the opposite end is a socket for an optional counterweight shaft.
Use Sky Watcher's Star Adventurer Ball Head Adapter to mount a DLSR camera onto your Star Adventurer EQ for long exposure or time-lapse wide-field astrophotography. The adapter fits onto the mount's Vixen-style saddle and is equipped with a 3/8"-16 thread screw to accept a user-supplied photo ball head.
Use Sky Watcher's Star Adventurer Counterweight Kit to balance the weight of an optical tube assembly or camera rig that is mounted on your Star Adventurer mount. The kit comes with a threaded shaft, a 2.2lb (1kg) weight, a retaining screw to hold its placement on the shaft, and an end screw to make sure the weight doesn't slip off the shaft.
