Having difficulty to polar align, especially in Southern Hemisphere? We have a solution: SkyGuider Pro with built-in iPolar!

The SkyGuider^TM 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 iPolar^TM - 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 SkyGuider^TM 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 SkyGuider^TM 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 SkyGuider^TM 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^TM 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 SkyGuide^TM Pro mount suitable for a heavier camera/lens system, even a lightweight telescope.

The SkyGuider^TM 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 SkyGuider^TM Pro is certainly a must have tool for any photographer interested in astroscape or wide field astrophotography.
