Vixen offers a number of single-arm mounts with a slipper clutch under the brand name Porta. These very functional and solidly-built mounts are a very good basis for small optics weighing up to 3 kilogrammes.

Vixen offers its Porta mounts in combination with suitable lens- and mirror telescopes.

The AC70/900 refractor telescope is especially recommended for beginners. It allows high levels of magnification with few colour defects and is therefore very well suited to observing the Moon and planets.

Thanks to the image-correcting erecting lenses, they are also suitable for nature observation. Refractor telescopes are also stable once aligned, and very robust.
