Hi Everyone, I have a question relating to the Sky-Watcher steel tripod linked by Portech7 at the top of this thread.
The original aluminium tripod of the EQ3 has a metal protrusion at the top of the tripod that the mount slots into, which provides azimuth left-right movement with the two knobs either side of the EQ3 mount. Looking at the pictures of the steel tripod I can't see the same type of protrusion, is this the case and if so does that mean that this tripod is not compatible with that left-right motion? Is another items needed for this?
I hope this makes sense, I can provide annotated pics if needed to better explain what I mean.
Thanks
