Celestron TrailSeeker Tripod

A perfect mount for my Celestron C90 Mak-Cass. A solid foundation as a grab-and-go astronomy scope mount, albeit without slow-motion hand adjustments. But for quick lunar and planetary spotting this is a winner. Pros: Convenient carry case, provides inside pocket for whatever, zippered full-length and easy open padded compartment for tripod. Provides leveling bubble Provides a small compass for basic polar alignment if needed. Single knob provides lock-down of both elevation and circular movement. Very sturdy legs! 3-section; center post also extends vertically if you need additional height. I like that I can set the mount level low and sit comfortably in a lawn chair for my observing sessions. Bonus: not advertised, my tripod arrived with a very nice Celestron metal (ie, non-flexible/moveable) binocular/camera mounting adapter; also a smaller plastic adapter but no manufacturing info. Cons: none found. Nyah: nice add-on features might be azimuth and latitude rings, but this was not advertised as an astronomy mount, though it can serve that function.

Bought this take on a cruise to use with a telescope to watch the Mercury transit. I know weird. Tried the mount out at home and I was sold. It held my 90 mm short refractor without any problem. The fluid head worked superbly. On the ship during the transit it was great! I love this tripod. My previous one was old and would not hold the scope. Having the bag for the tripod is also great. I would highly recommend this tripod. The quick release is excellent as well.

Arrived with a piece broken off one of the leg angle adjusters. The leg can still be moved, but the remaining piece feels fragile like it will come fully off. Box looked beaten up during shipping and there was no padding. Otherwise tripod seems sturdy, stable, and easy to operate.

I cannot believe it works so well. Clear 200-300 yd paper target shooting even farther when shooting steel. Total distance good to 800yd+ get the Bluetooth phone adapter from their Amazon page worth every penny!!! Stand is great quality with lots of adjustableity.

I ordered this to use with our Celestron scope, it’s nice and stable, lots of height adjustments and easy to set up. Came with a nice carrying case. I had been using a cheap camera tripod which couldn't handle the weight of the scope. I’m very happy with this tripod .

Works great, great price, pretty solid build quality works great for shooting and watching animals and such. I would recommend this product.

I bought this to watch bald eagles in the Spring. Easy to carry through the woods easy to set up. Very sturdy. My husband has already “stolen” it to use.

this is not a lightweight tripod. I needed one for my big spotting scope and this is it. The mount for the spotting scope is husky and holds scope firmly in place. adjusting nuts and clamps are big and stay put when adjusted. Very nice product. It lives up to ratings that review people have said. 5 star Tripod

Just under a year since purchase, the legs suddenly jammed after a night out in the desert. I was never really able to get them moving freely again, no matter how much I cleaned/reassembled it. It's a shame, since it was otherwise a pretty great tripod with a nice fluid pan head and it held my Celestron SkyMaster 8x56 binoculars steady and stable.

Buon prodotto, solido ma un po’ costoso

This tripod is well-built, stable, compact when folded, easy to use, and uncomplicated. Nothing fancy - it just works.

Fantástico

Buen producto
