Having difficulty to polar align, especially in Southern Hemisphere? We have a solution: SkyGuider Pro with built-in iPolar!
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.
iOptron iPolarTM - the smart electronic polarscope for everyone
Fast and easy to use
High precision (30 arcsec)
No need to see the Pole Star
No need to rotate the mount during alignment
Unique imaging enhancement technique
Smart plate solving
On screen instruction during alignment
Capable under poor sky visibility condition
Compatible to most equatorial mount with a proper adapter
Shows polar alignment without seeing Polaris using iOptron iPolar:
The redesigned SkyGuiderTM 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.
This mount has an integrated electronic polar finder scope known as the iPolar. This tool ensures the accurate alignment of a telescope, even when the pole star is obscured. There are large levers on the quick-lock drive engagement system; these large levers make it easy to snap the gears into place.
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.
The SkyGuiderTM Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography.
GOTONOVA® computerized control system (these features come with the optional 8408 Hand Controller) The revolutionary GOTONOVA® computerized control system is by far the most technologically advanced automated goto and tracking system available on the market today. A Go2Nova® 8408 hand controller, with latest firmware, can be plugged into the HBX port on a SkyGuiderTM Pro mount to slew the mount in RA axis, set the mount parameters, display Pole Star position, and control the camera shutter.
The most easy to understand controller on the market (these features come with the optional 8408 Hand Controller) The GoToNova hand controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD screen with more lines of content compared with the competition. Using the easy-to-use hand controller and its large LCD screen, you can easily set up your mount. On the Skyguider Pro, it displays the mount type, Current GuideRate (0.50), TrackingRate (Sidereal), Mount Status (Track), R.A. Slew Speed (MAX), Current Time (09:20:15) and N/S Hemisphere (N).
The SkyGuiderTM Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography.

iOptron iPolar Electronics Polarscope for SkyGuider Pro
Introducing iOptron iPolarTM - a high precision, easy to use electronics polarscope (e-PS).
What makes iPolar unique? 1. Can be easily installed inside the RA shaft on all iOptron equatorial mounts (except SmartEQ Pro). 2. Can be used on any mounts with adapters either internally or externally. 3. USB plug and play (no driver needed) 4. Works globally, no need to set northern and southern hemisphere. 5. No visible Polaris (north) or Sigma Octantis (south) necessary. 6. No need to rotate the mount during polar align.
iPolar is a smart electronic polarscope for everyone.
This SynScan WiFi Adapter facilitates the use of Sky-Watcher's free SynScan Pro WiFi app for iOS or Android, providing a smart upgrade for your mount. With this app, a database of more than 9,000 celestial objects including stars, star clusters, and nebulae, is available for you to explore. Straightforward and intuitive, this compact device eliminates the need for a separate hand controller and GPS by using your smartphone's robust processor for improved GOTO and tracking precision.
Includes two cables - 6 pin to 8 pin for altazimuth, and 8 pin to 8 pin for equatorial.
Plugs into the mount's handset port (via one of the supplied RJ12 -> RJ45 or RJ45 -> RJ45 cables) to provide wireless control from a smartphone or tablet using the SynScan or SynScan Pro app or, from a PC via ASCOM.
