Steve Massey at myastroshop.com.au has an adapter to fit a GSTAR video camera to the polar scope so as to use it. Though, the HEQ5 and NEQ6 polarscope is tantamount to useless.

The polarscopes in the Vixens and Takahashi mounts work VERY well, with many users being able to polar align VERY accurately using the scope. I have never tried, as I have a snowflakes chance in Hades of seeing ANYTHING like Sigma Octans in my light pollution
