Thanks to the N\/Z setting, you can use the motor in both the northern and southern hemispheres. One motor for all locations, no hassle with different models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perfect for astrophotography beginners<\/strong>
This engine makes long exposures feasible. Your images remain sharp and starry instead of streaky. This makes it easy to capture impressive details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
