## Description

Introducing The SkyGuiderTM Pro -- iOptron’s next generation camera tracking device! Leading the camera tracker market for nearly four years, iOptron's SkyGuider Pro pushes closer to perfection. The redesigned SkyGuiderrTM Pro mount head is more compact, small enough to fit on your palm, better precision, silent tracking, built-in rechargeable power source, ST-4 guiding port and camera trigger port. The improved precision polar scope maintains a fine engraved reticule, now features adjustable illumination with different brightness levels. Using with our iOS app, quick and accurate polar alignment is just a joy. The DEC mounting bracket allows you to balance a heavy camera and/or lens better, or even mount a light telescope. The optional 8408 hand controller allows you to check the Pole Star position for the polar alignment, slew the mount, adjust the guiding rate, change the mount settings and control the camera trigger. The SkyGuiderTM Pro features four tracking rates, 1X or sidereal, 1/2X for sky and landscape combined, solar and lunar. All 4 tracking rates work in both northern and southern hemispheres. We have also added a quick slew mode with both forward and reverse to help quickly reframing your image without disrupting the cameras position. We have made big improvements on the SkyGuiderTM Pro’s removable alt-azimuth base, which features a precision bubble level, degree markings for the altitude and a built in post for the azimuth control. You can also mount the SkyGuiderTM Pro head (without the base) directly to any standard photographic tripod with 1/4” or 3/8” threads.The DEC mounting bracket package, which includes DEC mounting bracket, counterweight shaft, counterweight and Vixen-type dovetail saddle, makes the SkyGuideTM Pro mount suitable for a heavier camera/lens system, even a lightweight telescope.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this allow moon tracking?**
A: Yes, it has 4 speeds - Solar (sun tracking), Lunar (moon tracking), 1/2 sidereal (1/2 star speed), and sidereal (star tracking). During the recent solar eclipse I was able to keep the sun in my camera frame for over 90 minutes with a 900mm equivalent lens.

**Q: What is included in the Full Package?**
A: PACKAGE CONTENTS
SkyGuiderTM Pro camera mount
Alt-azi base (installed)
AccuAlignTM dark field illuminated polar scope (installed)
Micro USB charging cable
Padded carry bag
DEC mounting bracket w/ camera mounting disk
1.35kg counterweight
CW shaft
One Year Limited Warranty (90 day on battery)

**Q: is this easy to figure out and configure for a total beginner to astro photog?  How many hours to use it properly? thanks.**
A: I was a total beginner when I got mine. Its easy to use. The first time I tried it I got a good picture of the orion nebula. Probably put in 5 hours incld post proccessing but enjoyed what I was doing.

**Q: What is the weight limit?**
A: Just rechecked the manual; spec is “up to 11lbs (5kg)”. I would say that’s the absolute max, bases on my experience with the mount. I’ve got a Meade 102 mm SC with a Canon 70D DSLR attached (around 8lbs) and the mount can handle it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy and fast way to take great astrophotos. But you still need to know where you are aiming it ;-) Easy to transport.
*by A***B on 26 July 2018*

Normally I do my imaging with a very elaborate, expensive, heavy, and bulky setup. I wanted an ultra small/light setup for travel and fast setup. I have another Ioptron mount and it works great so thought this would be a good choice. I have used it with my Nikon D800 DSLR and lens ranging from 20mm to 300mm. Even with the 300 the sharps remain dots with exposures up to 3 minutes or more. The attached wide field shot of the Milky Way was shot with a 20mm lens and 6 minute exposure on the DSLR. My normal setup is a ATIK 940 EX cooled astro camera with the same Nikon lens. on the SkyGuider. I use a Bogen crutch leg tripod or a surveyors tripods. A heavy sturdy tripod is mandatory! The mount can take up to 11# of camera and lens via a setup that uses a counterweight. There is a version with just the mount and another one with the equatorial mount bracket, counter weight shaft and counter weight, and a attachment that lets you set it up in several configurations.That is the setup I have. I went with the photo kit which only adds a few bucks to the cost. The included polar alignment scope is very accurate and fast to setup. It takes just a couple of minutes to polar align.it very accurately using a free app for Android or Iphones that matches the observing location, time and date to where Polaris is in relation to the true North Celestial Pole. That information is used to locate Polaris on the circum polar circle in the finder scope. The guider itself hasa good sized gear with a brass worm drive. The transission from the motor is via a toothed rubber drive belt which will eliminate jitter. In short the drive is very smooth and accurate. The mount has siderial, lunar, and solar tracking rates as well as 1/2 siderial which is used when imaging the sky with landscape in the forground. The mount is unique in that it includes a autoguide port. I haven't used that yet although I do have a small autogfuider setup that would work with it. However, the mount is so good you may not need it.....I am trying to keep from adding a bunch of additional gear...so may never use that guider port. Note thouigh that since the mount tracks only is RA....the guider would only move in RA also. Since DEC shouldn 't be an issue with a good polar alignment you really won't need DEC guiding. I included a photo of the setup I use with the ATIK camera. Note that while this is a tracking mount there is no provision for GOTO or finding stars. You will have to find them yourself but if you know enough about astronomy that won't be a problem. The software I have allows me to focus and continually see where my ATIK camera is aimed. My Nidon was a little bit more difficult but I found a device that plugs into the camera hot shoe what can hold either a red dot finder or a green laser pointer to help you aim it. The only issue I had was the first one arrived with a bad battery that would not take or hold a charge. Adorama promtoply issued a RA and sent another one which has worked flawlessly. I have bought a lot of gear over the years from Adorama so can vouch for their company and service. By the way the internal battery is rechageable and lasts for up to 20 hours but you can also plug an external power supply to run the mount as well as recharge the battery. That connection also let you upload firmware updates when they come out. THere is a port to have a camera cable release on some cameras, but in my case it was redundant for what I alread have. In short this is an amazing device for astrophotography. It is easy to use, a qality product and well engineered. I will not give uip my more elaborate setup but this makes it easy to take great astrophotos......but it helps to have dark skies of course!
