Hi
I make use of an app on the phone to select two alignment stars first, then I know where they are and what I am looking for. I have both a Meade finder (8 x 50) and an RDF. I mostly use the Meade finder for alignment.
I also a low power eyepiece first, then switch to an illuminated crosshair eyepiece for each alignment star. This seems to give me better accuracy.
I think 5mins for the process.
My scope is alt/az, and I think that polar alignment first would make it harder.
