CG-5 Computerised — GoTo convenience and GPS compatibility for precision accuracy

We are proud to offer a computerised GoTo version of Celestron's sturdy CG-5 mount. Couple this solid mount with the included computerised control system to utilize many of the same functions and features — like the NexStar computer control system and an Autoguider port for long exposure deep sky astrophotography — as Celestron's most advanced GoTo telescopes.
