  • I had to move the vixen mount dovetail on my Celestron Omni AZ 102 telescope to the rear so that I could properly balance it when mounting a camera instead of an eyepiece. The provided 4" dovetail doesn't give a lot of adjustment room, so I rotated it on the rear screw, and drilled and tapped a new M6x1.0 hole near the rear. This positions the dovetail such that the center of balance is near the center when my camera is installed.

      It is a good beginner telescope. You can find it at most telescope shops and online in places such as high point scientific or Amazon. I've seen it in the $200-$275 range. Here is an amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/3TUY5PZ
