I have found NINA very easy to get a grip with, I'm using a Edge 1100HD with a Hyperstar ( F1.9 )and doing 20 second subs, I have a guide scope but am not using it as the stars are crisp at that exposure time.
Given how easily the rest of NINA works I'll give the PA routine a go soon, I'm only using Sharpcap to do PA's with so if NINA does it easy enough, I'll save my Au$18.00 a year.
Hope this helps.

Ed, I thought NINA's polar alignment routine only works for the Northern Hemisphere?
Have you actually tried in the South? If so, I'd love to hear your impressions of the feature; easy/hard/accurate, etc.
