Celestron Polar Axis Finderscope for CGX & CGX-L Mounts

Fast, Accurate Polar Alignment—No Apps or Coordinates Required

The Polar Axis Finderscope is an essential accessory for CGX and CGX-L mount users who want a fast and reliable way to achieve accurate polar alignment. Designed specifically for these Celestron mounts, it eliminates the need for guesswork, smartphone apps, or manual calculation of time and coordinates.

Custom-Built for CGX & CGX-L

This finderscope comes with a precision-fit dovetail base bracket that mounts directly to your CGX or CGX-L equatorial mount. Once installed, the finder can be easily removed from the bracket for transport or storage, making it ideal for astronomers on the go.

Adjustable Viewing Angle

The mounting bracket features an adjustable tilt angle, allowing you to position the finderscope for optimal comfort based on your setup. Whether you're aligning from a seated or standing position, you can rotate the finder for an accessible, unobstructed view.

Simple, Star-Based Alignment

Forget digital tools—this finderscope uses a clearly marked reticle that displays the positions of Ursa Major and Cassiopeia in relation to the North Celestial Pole. Just locate Polaris, match the constellation patterns to the reticle, and align your mount. No need for time, date, or geographic input.

Ideal for Imaging and Visual Observation

Accurate polar alignment is crucial for smooth tracking and long-exposure astrophotography. With the CGX finderscope, you’ll spend less time setting up and more time observing or imaging your favourite deep-sky objects.

At a Glance:

  • Compatible with CGX and CGX-L mounts only

  • Dovetail bracket included for secure attachment

  • Detachable finder for easy storage

  • Adjustable angle for personalised comfort

  • Intuitive reticle with constellation references

  • No need for electronics, apps, or coordinates

This compact, lightweight accessory is a simple upgrade that delivers a big boost in performance—ideal for anyone looking to streamline setup and enhance accuracy under the stars.

What happens if I don't like it?

We always want you to be happy with your purchase — so if you’re unsure, please ask us first. We’re always happy to give honest advice before you buy.

If the product arrives and you simply decide it isn’t for you, you can usually return it within the cooling-off period — as long as it’s unused, in perfect condition, and returned with all original packaging and accessories.

Because telescopes and optical equipment are large, delicate and expensive to ship, you’ll need to cover the cost of sending it back, and if we originally subsidised delivery, we may deduct our outbound shipping costs from your refund.

We’re a small specialist business, and unnecessary returns genuinely hurt us — so if you’re unsure at all, please talk to us first. We’d rather help you choose the right item than process a return.

How fast is shipping?

We aim to ship in-stock items as quickly as possible.

  • Most in-stock orders dispatch within 1–2 working days
  • Delivery usually takes 1–3 working days after dispatch (UK mainland)
  • Heavier / oversized items and special orders may take a little longer

You’ll receive tracking details as soon as your order is on its way.

Astronomy equipment often requires specialist packing and trusted couriers — we do this to keep your gear safe, not to slow things down. If you need something urgently, just ask and we’ll do our best.
