For enthusiasts interested in visual observation with a telescope up to 150mm in diameter, the NEQ3-2 mount allows for quality observations with minimal vibrations. The more massive version, the HEQ5 Pro Go-To mount, is preferable for those looking to start in long exposure astrophotography. The NEQ3-2 mount supports many beginner telescopes up to 150mm in diameter (5.5kg max) or refractors up to 100mm in diameter. It features fine movements in azimuth and latitude to facilitate polar alignment and compensate for Earth's rotation (to keep the object centered in the field of view of the eyepiece).

The adaptation of the optical tube is done using a Vixen-type female dovetail. An accessory tray ensures the overall rigidity of the setup. The NEQ3-2 mount can receive a polar finder (option #SW0123) along the polar axis for quick alignment.
