Leading the camera tracker market for nearly four years, iOptron's SkyGuider Pro pushes the technology even closer to perfection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe redesigned SkyGuider Pro mount head is more compact, small enough to fit on your palm. It offers better precision, silent tracking, built-in rechargeable power source, ST-4 guiding port, and a camera trigger port. The improved precision polar scope maintains a fine engraved reticule, but now features adjustable illumination with different brightness levels. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iOptron SkyGuider Pro camera tracking mount 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. There is also a quick slew mode with both forward and reverse to help quickly reframing your image without disrupting the camera's setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eiOptron made big improvements on the SkyGuider 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 SkyGuider Pro head (without the base) directly to any standard photographic tripod with the industry standard 1\/4” or 3\/8” thread bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included DEC mounting bracket package, which includes DEC mounting bracket, counterweight shaft, a counterweight, and Vixen-type dovetail saddle, makes the SkyGuide Pro mount suitable for a heavier camera\/lens system, even a lightweight telescope! Includes a soft carrying bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SkyGuider Pro from iOptron is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll metal mechanical structure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttaches to a camera tripod with 3\/8” or 1\/4” threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePayload 11 lbs (5kg) (balanced, with DEC mounting bracket, exclude CW)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilent tracking for smooth camera motion, perfect for long-term exposures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC machined precision alt-azi base with fine latitude and azimuth adjusters for easy polar alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes iOptron AccuAlign\u003csup\u003eTM\u003c\/sup\u003e dark-field illuminated polar scope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable polar scope illumination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 tracking speed (1X, 1\/2X, solar and lunar). 1X celestial tracking for imaging the sky and stars; 1\/2X tracking speed for imaging both the starry night and the landscapes at the same time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperation in both northern and southern hemisphere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick slew (144X) for camera framing adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in rechargeable battery for up to 20 hours of operation (20°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in ST-4 autoguiding port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHBX port for external hand controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicro USB port for power, charging and firmware upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in shutter triggering port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded carry bag included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDEC mounting bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCounterweight and CW shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVixen dovetail saddle for scope mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional ball heads available separately (#3305A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional tripod (#3221)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional Go2Nova® 8408 hand controller (#8408)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional DSLR camera shutter trigger cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkyGuider Pro Camera Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlt-Azi Base (installed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccuAlign dark field illuminated polar scope (installed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicro USB Charging Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded Carry Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDEC Mounting Bracket with camera mounting disk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.35kg Counterweight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCW Shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Year Limited Warranty (90 Days on Battery)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eNOTE\u003c\/span\u003e: As shown in the photos, the camera, lens, telescope, ballhead and tripod not included with this product!
