• Mounts directly to the standard screw mount of all Planewave's common telescopes via the straight mounting block.
• Weights can be mounted in horizontal position at the rear of the OTA both "top" and "bottom". This makes it possible to balance the telescope in the vertical position as well.

• Sturdy swivel arm with clickstop for cameras up to 1.5 kg
• For afocal projection photography
• ClickStop Twist-Lock-Mechanism

Photography with larger cameras

The Microstage II is the universal solution for small compact cameras. Large cameras up to DSLR require a sturdier connection. In this PDF you find an overview of all adaptation options using the camera bayonet or lens thread

• 1¼" filter holder, to use smaller filters or other parts (barlow lenses, reducers) with 1¼" filter thread in the path of light

• Baader H-alpha Ultra-Narrowband Filter – Premium Grade
• 3.5 nm FWHM (to harmonize the exposure time with O-III / S-II), recommended for optical systems from > f/3.4
• For highest contrast even at strongest light pollution, minimizes star size, emphasizes finest nebula detail – indispensable under Bortle 9/8/7/(6) skies
• Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated and planeoptically polished – with sealed coating edges (Life-Coat™)
• Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim
• Optimized for modern CMOS cameras, but likewise excellent for CCD camera technologies

We explicitly warn against observing the sun with a DeepSky 3.5 nm (equivalent to 35 Ångstroem) H-alpha narrowband filter, specialized solar chromosphere and prominence filters from SolarSpectrum start at 0.8 Ångstroem. Photographic experiments with a camera are theoretically possible, but by no means observe the sun with naked eyes – you endanger your eyesight!
