iOptron Mounting SkyGuider Pro<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compact, powerful and perfect for astrophotography on the go
The iOptron SkyGuider Pro<\/strong> makes it easy to take beautiful, razor-sharp shots of the night sky. Mount your camera or small telescope, adjust the alignment and let the mount do the work. This allows you to use longer exposures without stars turning into streaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"iOptron<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Stable tracking for clear images<\/strong>
The SkyGuider Pro follows the earth's rotation smoothly and precisely. As a result, your photos stay sharp even at slow shutter speeds. Thanks to the sturdy straight-climbing axis and counterweight, your camera always remains balanced - essential for deep sky shots with heavy lenses up to 5 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flexible and expandable<\/strong>
You can mount a second camera in place of the counterweight. Perfect if you want to capture the sky with two focal lengths simultaneously. With the optional Go2Nova handheld, you can also track automatically via the ST-4 port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"iOptron<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Smart nutrition and ease of use<\/strong>
The built-in Li-Polymer battery lasts up to 20 hours and charges easily via USB. No loose power cords, no hassle. Simply point to the Pole Star with the built-in illuminated polar finder, and you're ready for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always the right speed<\/strong>
You can choose from four speeds: stars, Sun, Moon or half sidereal speed. The latter is ideal when you want to capture both stars and the foreground sharply. And thanks to the ability to reverse the direction of rotation, you can also use the SkyGuider Pro in the southern hemisphere - perfect for travel and expeditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
