This Losmandy piggyback system for Vixen-style accessory dovetails is precision-machined of aluminum and anodized black for long life. It can be used to support a camera and lens for taking a long exposure photo, or a CCD camera being used to guide a long exposure photo being taken through the main optics. The VCM provides a stable camera platform with a full 360° camera rotation.

The base of the Losmandy VCM has a slot that fits onto any Losmandy Vixen-style accessory dovetail plate. A quick release knob lets you position the VCM at any point along the length of the dovetail for balancing purposes and lock it securely in place, with no tools needed. A standard 1/4"-20 thread camera attachment bolt extends up through the camera platform of the VCM to hold your camera. A large plastic knob on the bolt lets you lock the camera securely in place at any desired rotation angle.

The VCM weighs 1 pound. The height from the top of the dovetail plate to the top of the camera mount is 0.875".
