Product information "BRESSER Tripod TP-100 DX with carry bag"
Do you own a BRESSER StarTracker Astrophoto Mount PM-100 (Art.No.: 4964120) and are looking for an ultra-stable tripod ?
Then the height-adjustable TP-100 DX aluminium tripod from BRESSER is an extremely stable base. With the help of a 1/4 inch photo thread screw, the BRESSER astrophoto mount is firmly attached to the tripod. This allows you to use the astrophoto mount in azimuth mode for time-lapse and panorama shots.
For the production of astronomical photos we recommend the use of the BRESSER Micro Motion Head MH-100 (Polar-Wedge) art. no. 4964140. This is screwed directly onto the tripod head and establishes the connection to the astrophoto mount. This allows the astrophoto mount to be set in EQ mode and rotate the saddle-mounted camera precisely against the earth's rotation and thus the stars remain in pinpoint shape even with long exposures.

SXD2WL VC200L Cassegrain Telescope Complete Set with GoTo Mount, Tripod, and EyepiecesThis high-quality telescope set impresses with its large 200-mm Cassegrain mirror optics optimized for photography with a flattener. The telescope is manufactured in Japan and scores with its excellent workmanship, sharpness, and contrast performance. The advantage of this telescope also lies in its short, open design and its low weight. Thus, the optics cool down faster than a closed system.The VISAC primary mirror (= Vixen Sixth-Order Aspheric Cassegrain) is specially designed for astrophotography and delivers a completely flat and color-true image across the entire field of view.
Spherical aberration, coma, and field curvature are absolute foreign concepts for this optic.
The reason for this is the three-lens field corrector in front of the convex secondary mirror.Although the telescope is optimized for
astrophotography, it can of course also be used for
visual observation. A special coating technique (state-of-the-art technology) provides the optimal mirror surface for observing and photographing deep-sky objects. It allows for controlled coating and individually corrects errors on the mirrors. You will be amazed when you observe the
moon's surface with its craters or Saturn with its
ring system. On Jupiter, on a good night, many smaller details in the cloud bands will be visible, as well as the Great Red Spot on the planet. On moonless nights, you can observe the Andromeda Nebula, Orion Nebula, Eagle Nebula, Lagoon Nebula and many other interesting faint objects. The brighter globular clusters can be easily resolved into individual stars.This telescope set "Made in Japan" simply leaves no wishes unfulfilled. The large 60-mm eyepiece drawtube allows for the attachment of heavy cameras without tilting. In addition, the supplied flip mirror
enables comfortable observation even in unfavorable observing situations and
also offers a T2 thread for connecting a DSLR camera. Thus,
you can observe in straight view or at a 90° angle. The carrying handle attached to the tube clamps ensures safe transport of the telescope. The sturdy metal tripod allows for a vibration-free setup of the telescope and mount even in windy weather.The SXD2WL mount is simply operated via a Wifi module with a smartphone or tablet. For user-friendly control of the mount, the free STAR BOOK Wireless app is available. This allows you to use practical functions of celestial navigation such as automatic GoTo swivelling to specific celestial objects very easily via your smartphone or tablet. As the power consumption of the conventional LCD screen (STAR BOOK TEN) is eliminated, the power consumption of the mount is reduced by up to 20%. This enables astronomical observations and astrophotography over longer periods.
By tapping the desired celestial object from a list, it automatically swivels into the telescope's field of view and tracking begins. An existing STAR BOOK TEN control can also be used on this mount without any problems. Equipped with the same precision stepper motors as the flagship model, the AXD mount, the SXD2WL brings a new standard of performance and precision to the Vixen mount family.
The axis cross of the mount has a photographic carrying capacity of 15 kg while weighing only 9.2 kg, making it excellent for mobile observations. Moreover, the motors located in the lower part of the mount also serve as counterweights. This means the mount requires fewer weights for balancing.
Details of the SXD2 Mount
Precision stepper motors and Micro-Step Motion Control System
The heart of the SXD2 are the precision stepper motors, offering better performance and response than previous models. The Micro-Step Motion Control System is noted for its powerful yet very quiet driving characteristics, suitable for both fine movements and rapid swivelling.
Built-in bearings
The bearings of the RA and DEC axes and the worm shafts have been significantly improved to reduce the load on the motors. As a result, the motors move much more quietly than in previous models.
High-precision worm gears
Advanced manufacturing technologies have eliminated errors in worm gears. The edges of both the worms and worm gears are exceptionally smooth, allowing very precise tracking.
Declination axis as counterweight
The massive motor units are built into the lower part of the declination axis, lowering the center of gravity of the SXD2 just below the intersection point of the RA and DEC axes. This reduces the need for additional counterweights.
Latitude adjustment
The latitude is adjustable between 0 and 70 degrees (divided into 3 zones and adjustable +/- 15 degrees per zone, for high, medium, and low latitudes); latitude scale in 2-degree steps; fine adjustment with a tangent screw head, about 0.8 degrees per turn.
Built-in PFL-II Polar Finder with Illumination
The built-in 5x20 mm polar finder with a 10° field of view features a 3-star alignment system.
This eliminates the tedious setting of date and time. The illuminated reticle with variable brightness and automatic shutoff is adjustable in 8 steps and illuminated in red. The alignment accuracy is 3 arc minutes.
Details of the Wireless Module
The Vixen Wifi Adapter for EQ mounts enables you to control your Vixen mount via a smartphone or tablet. With the STAR BOOK Wireless smartphone app (free), celestial navigation is simple and wireless. The app instantly transforms your mobile device into a control for the equatorial mount. The reaction delay of the mount, a major disadvantage of wireless connections, has been reduced to a level comparable to wired solutions.
Reduced power consumption compared to traditional controls with an LCD monitor
The power consumption of the mount is reduced by up to 20%, allowing for longer observations than with traditional wired controls like the STAR BOOK TEN.
Operation similar to the STAR BOOK TEN control
The STAR BOOK Wireless App is set up similarly to the STAR BOOK TEN control. Depending on the star chart setting, it contains up to 259,000 celestial objects. Tap a celestial object in the list and start the GoTo. The mount will now automatically move to this target and bring it into the field of view of the telescope. All popular features of the STAR BOOK TEN are retained.
Convenient operation
While looking through the telescope, you operate the mount by swiping on the star chart in the app. Since there are no buttons, you simply glide your finger across the star chart to easily operate the mount.
Extensive astronomical data included
This includes data on easily observable celestial bodies such as Messier objects, NGC objects, IC objects, as well as the sun, moon, planets, comets, and dwarf planets.
High-precision alignment
Alignment on one or two stars already provides a fairly accurate positioning of the mount. Alignment on three or more stars allows for extremely precise alignment of the mount for high magnifications. The objects are then positioned exactly and centrally in the field of view of your telescope. The alignment information is stored and can also be retained when the device is turned off. By leaving the telescope in its current state after an observation, without moving it, you can start the next observation with the same settings.
Individual adjustment options
As with the STAR BOOK TEN control, the app offers various individual settings such as gear play compensation, red night mode, autoguider, variable GoTo speed, and LED brightness. You can also set the time of reversal of the objective tube (Meridian Flip) according to your preference. Even if the object moves south during tracking, you can prevent the telescope tube from reversing. Important Information
Not usable on old SX mounts with the old blue Star Book
Technical Information about the Wifi Module
CPU with 32-bit CISC processor at 120 MHz

Whether you want to explore the night sky or make terrestrial observations during the day, the BRESSER NightExplorer 15x70 astronomy binoculars will ensure that you are perfectly equipped for all your outdoor adventures. The extra large lens diameter of 70 mm lets a large amount of light into the binoculars, while the 15x magnification ensures that you obtain highly detailed images of your observed targets. Fully multicoated optics ensure scattered light is kept to a minimum, so that you can enjoy a perfect view with the best possible optical performance. At a distance of 1000 metres, the field of view is 77 metres wide. The highly corrected eyepieces with 5 lenses in 3 groups produce vivid images with sharp edges.
Coating
The premium BaK-4 optics (barium crown glass) features a full multi-coating to increase light transmission and reduce reflections.
Focusing
Thanks to the individual eyepiece adjustment, you only need to focus the binoculars once. You can then enjoy a sharp image at infinity for the night sky. The binoculars also have a close focus, which you can set from a distance of 10 metres or more for close-up observations of your immediate surroundings.
Also suitable for glasses wearers
Thanks to the foldable eyecups, you can set the optimal distance between your eyes and the ocular lenses. If you wear glasses, this allows you to see the entire field of view of the Porro-prism binoculars. There is also a dioptre compensation of +/-8, which you can use to compensate for small differences in vision between your eyes.
Weatherproof and robust
Thanks to their waterproof design, the binoculars can be used in wet or foggy weather conditions, as water and moisture cannot enter the housing. The binoculars are filled with argon to stop the optics from fogging up. In addition, the ergonomic armouring provides a secure grip and protects the binoculars against impacts and knocks, making them ideal to travel with.
Portable design
The 15x70 Porro-prism binoculars come with an excellent lightweight aluminium tripod, with study ballhead mounting, to ensure wobble-free astronomical or terrestrial observations. Both the binoculars and the tripod can be stored in the sturdy padded backpack, which is also included in the set. This ensures that you can easily transport your gear to your desired vantage point, even if you have to go a long way to get there.
Discover the night sky and the wonders of nature with the powerful BRESSER NightExplorer 15x70 astronomy binoculars!
