Review on 🌌 Celestron Advanced VX Computerized Mount 91519: Advanced Technology For Precision Astronomy by Nick Kussmaul

I've had this mount for a few months now and it's really good. I bought this mount as an upgrade for my Nexstar 6SE. With the Nexstar SE Mount, I was able to get 8-12 seconds of subwoofer before I started seeing star trails in my images. Since it was an Alt-Az mount, you would have field rotation. On the other hand, I was able to get 1-minute subwoofers with the VX Mount without autoguiding. Because this is an equalizer, there is no field rotation. The Nexstar 6SE OTA fits perfectly on this mount. As the 6SE has a Fox style dovetail mount it could be mounted on a VX mount. The 12-pound counterweight that came with the mount did a good job of balancing the OTA. At first I was concerned that the OTA might not be balanced, but once I attached it to the bracket everything was fine. Tracking and GoTo on the VX Mount are very good. If you align it properly, it will center every object in the sky perfectly. If you have really good pole alignment you can get over 1 minute subwoofers for astrophotography. I usually get 40 second subwoofers (1500mm focal length) with All Star polar alignment built in. low4- Select Polar Align5- Polar Alignment 1- Center the star using the manual controls 2- Center the star using the controls6- Loosen the bracket7- Repeat the 2 star alignment (steps 1/2)8- FINISHED! Rating: Pass: 8/10 Tracking: 8/10 Portability: 3/10 Stability: 8/10 Ease of Use: 7/10 Overall this is a good mount if you are starting out in astrophotography or just looking to upgrade your old mount. It's worth the price. Images taken with this mount/my other images can be found at http://www.astrobin.com/users/Nebula10/.
