The Celestron Piggyback Mount for NexStar 5, 6, 8 turns your telescope into a guiding platform for your camera, allowing you to take stunning wide-angle images of the night sky. This accessory is perfect for photographing celestial wonders such as the Milky Way, nebulae, the Moon, and more, using your own camera lenses.
Easily attachable to the top rear of any Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, the piggyback mount can be set up within minutes. It leverages the telescope's dual-axis motor drive to enable longer exposure photography without star trails, capturing intricate details of astronomical objects that would be challenging to achieve with a standard photographic tripod or a non-driven telescope.
This piggyback bracket opens up a world of astrophotography possibilities. Whether you're aiming to capture the dynamic motion of comets with a long, fast lens or the grandeur of the Milky Way, this mount along with a DSLR camera and a selection of lenses, transforms your Celestron SCT telescope into a powerful tool for both celestial and terrestrial photography.
