When the mount and telescope have been set up, be sure to balance the mount correctly ( see more here).
For most Alt-Az mounts, leveling of the pier is not needed, but check the manual of your mount. To get the best tracking, the mount must be aligned precisely.
The needed accuracy depends on the focal length, but often we talk sub arc second tracking. Good tracking is important when taking deep sky images. So just start with the equipment you have. A PC with good hard disk capacity as many subs must be stored.A mount that can track precisely (guided or unguided) for 1-2 minutes.A camera with low readout noise (likely a CMOS camera – but most modern cameras can be used).A fast optical system to get as much data as possible, preferably f/5 or faster.With limited exposure time per sub, the following is important: >Impatient Instructions – click here to go to the step-by-step instructions<< In this post, I will look into the following subjects: But with good knowledge and persistence, you can take great images even with modest equipment. As with any astronomy equipment, the quality of the mount (stability, tracking accuracy), telescope and camera will of course have influence on the final result.

It is possible to take wonderful deep sky images with an Alt-Az mount if you know how to do it and pick the right objects. If you own an Alt-Az mount, you most likely think “It cannot be used for deep sky astrophotography”. You can take great astrophotos using your Alt-Az mount – learn how here
