This innovative device is designed to simplify polar alignment, even in the challenging Southern Hemisphere, making it an essential tool for astrophotography enthusiasts. The SkyGuider Pro is a next-generation camera tracking device, compact enough to fit in your palm, yet packed with advanced features. Its precision is unmatched, offering silent tracking and a built-in rechargeable power source. It also includes an ST-4 guiding port and a camera trigger port for enhanced functionality. One of the standout features of the SkyGuider Pro is its iPolar electronic polar finder scope. This tool ensures accurate alignment of your telescope, even when the pole star is obscured. The device also boasts a quick-lock drive engagement system with large levers for easy gear engagement. The SkyGuider Pro offers four tracking rates: 1X or sidereal, 1/2X for combined sky and landscape, solar, and lunar. These rates function in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. A quick slew mode with forward and reverse options allows for swift reframing of your image without disrupting the camera's position. The SkyGuider Pro's removable alt-azimuth base has been significantly improved, featuring a precision bubble level, degree markings for altitude, and a built-in post for azimuth control. The device can be mounted directly to any standard photographic tripod with 1/4" or 3/8" threads, without the base. The DEC mounting bracket package, which includes a DEC mounting bracket, counterweight shaft, counterweight, and Vixen-type dovetail saddle, makes the SkyGuider Pro suitable for heavier camera/lens systems or even lightweight telescopes.
