Hi Fox.
Appreciate the reply.
Look forward hearing back with your report on the ipolar.
Originally I owned a 8se (now sold) for visual use only along with basic lunar photography with my DSLR. Started to get some interest after a couple of yrs of accomplishing some more serious AP. Little did I know how deep the AP rabbit hole goes as far as big bucks is concerned. Hence me deciding to take baby steps and purchased the my sky tracker but as has I mentioned I was left a bit deflated with the difficulty of getting a decent polar alignment.
Trying to gain a bit more interest in the hobby during COVID lockdown I come across the ipolar and thought this could be exactly what I’m looking for. But at $400 or so dollars with no guarantee of it working is a bit of a gamble I’m not willing to take nor afford.
I wondering if this camera could be used as a guide camera also once polar alignment had been achieved?
