Does this telescope come with an alt/az mount?

Yes, it comes. But it is not motorized. I'm seriously considering to buy a motorized one. The telescope is very good. Obviously, does not match an APO, but its perfect and it really deserves a motorized one.

No, it comes with an equatorial mount as a package. the equatorial though is smooth and very sturdy.

Hi,The tripod/mount was included when I purchased it (and it is the mount that's computerized). This is what known as a "Go-to" telescope; I've been very happy with it.Doug

I bought some, but ended up returning them. They do in fact come with two rings assemblies required to mount a traditional scope. Hope this helps.

Yes it does, I bought a different Mount and it worked fine, had an old one and it worked on it also.

Yes, it does come with a mount. However I needed a 1/2" riser to correctly align it with my Mepro M21 red dot. You might also want a QD on that riser unless you want to leave it on all the time

No. It only comes with one 25mm 1.25" Sirius Plössl eyepiece. You have to get the others separately.

Mine came with a metal mount that looks just like the picture. Too small to mount on my scope, like I wanted. But otherwise looks solid.

No. The Astrotracer function does not use a special mount. The compensation motion comes from the moveable sensor inside the camera.

It comes with a tripod, the device, aluminum camera\telescope mounting hardwre, and a handheld controller. Made in USA. WARNING After I got mine I found out it is discontinued and not supported any more. Software and firmware updates are hard to find, look at forums for current info before buying this. If the box looks used, do not accept it, I think I got a refurbed one for full price.

It comes with 2 eyepieces that change the "zoom" of the scope. That's all it comes with and some basic instructions.. YouTube is Great way to lean how to use a telescope too. The "accessory kit" looks like garbage ... Don't waste your money!

I believe it does. I don't use a mount, so I can't double check (must have misplaced that piece), but I'm pretty sure it came with one.

I as well did not receive a lot of information but I went online and learned everything. The telescope comes with an extra lense ( at least mine did). Go to www.orion.com and see what comes up.

No it does not. I purchased Leupold lens covers and a Leupold mount for the scope.

Yes the tripod comes with it. The height with telescope mounted is 48 inches.

I know very little about astrophotography but I am reasonably sure you need to have an equatorial mount for your scope to accurately track objects for any amount of time. The next star 8 comes with the alt azimuth mount. I think you can buy the equatorial mount as an accessory. My guess would be less than a minute with your scope as is.

yes it does. It has glowing fiber optic tubes on them so they really stick out. also they are spot one right out of the box. oh and you can choose to put the scope on or not
