Observing Tip:

Even small increases in mount height can make a big difference in field usabilityespecially when imaging or sharing views with multiple observers of different heights. The 5″ MiniPier helps prevent your scope from swinging too close to the tripod legs during low-altitude slewing or when using diagonals and long accessories.
