I own nothing that tracks or guides. I used to think my Naglers (the first EPs I owned) were virtually essential for dobbing and other modes of altazzing and med-high powers, until I decided to actually take note of how often I observe objects outside of the field that, say, a plossl would show. The answer was: approximately never. Instead, I found myself centering the target much more often than the Nags would require. My ortho and plossl collection has been growing ever since.
