Carbon. Composed.
Compact.
A Seestar tripod machined from woven carbon fiber. Strong enough to carry 30 kg, light enough to forget you packed it. 0.59 kg in your hand.
Designed for your Seestar. Built to outlast it.
The detail you can’t see, but always feel.
Twist-lock carbon legs.
Three high-modulus carbon-fiber legs, each with two telescoping sections, damp vibration faster than aluminium and shave grams off every trip out. Foam grips stay warm in winter, cool in summer.
Holds 50 times its own weight.
A 0.59 kg tripod rated to a 30 kg static load. Plenty of margin for any Seestar, plus a phone clamp, dew heater and battery pack.
235 to 365 mm of leg.
Independently adjustable. Drop the centre of gravity in wind, or stand tall for a comfortable working height.
Universal 3/8″-16 thread.
Industry standard. Compatible with the ZWO TH10 head, photo heads, video heads and quick-release plates.
Non-slip rubber feet.
Secure grip on rock, decking, dewy grass or polished hardwood. Damps vibration before it reaches your sensor.
One bubble. No guesswork.
An integrated spirit level lives on the top plate, in your direct line of sight as you set up. Three independently adjustable legs let you find perfect horizontal in seconds, even on a sloping driveway or rocky lookout.
Twist-lock leg sections snap into any extension between 235 and 365 mm. The lowest setting drops the centre of gravity for stability in wind. The tallest setting brings the Seestar housing up to a comfortable working height.
Tripod and bag, ready to go.
The TC20 ships with a ZWO drawstring carry bag for safe transport. Pair it with the optional TH10 tripod head for fast Seestar swap-on, swap-off.
Made for Seestar. Useful for everything else.
The official ZWO tripod for the Seestar smart telescope range, and the stock tripod that ships with the Seestar S50.
Seestar S30.
Mounts via the TH10 head with a 1/4″ to 3/8″ thread adapter.
Seestar S30 Pro.
Same fit as the S30. Drops onto the TH10 dovetail in seconds.
Seestar S50.
The stock tripod for the S50. Perfect direct replacement.
DSLR, mirrorless, spotting scopes.
The 3/8″-16 top thread is the same standard you’ll find on every serious tripod head. Add a 1/4″ reducer and run a camera, video head or laser rangefinder on the same legs.
One latitude caveat.
When paired with the TH10 head, the head can contact the tripod leg at very steep declinations. The combo is not recommended below 15° latitude. The TC20 itself is fine standalone at any latitude.
