Ideal for astrophotography<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the ST4 autoguider interface, you keep long exposures stable. The motors accurately control the RA and DEC axes to keep your photos in focus. The manual control allows you to easily choose from three tracking speeds. This way you adjust speed to stars, the moon or the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hand control that thinks with you<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
