As an aside, another gem of wisdom (or not) is to let the sky (The Earth's rotation) dither for you, by stacking (short*) exposures from a fixed mount/tripod, with a generous gap between exposures, of between 2 to 3 times the exposure length. Somewhat off-topic, but useful if you're on holidays without all your gear/EQ-mount.

*Short as in sufficiently "short" exposures such as not to cause obvious star trailing, as defined by using typical 600 exposure rule, except that I prefer to use 300.

Best
