Hi Yoly and welcome,
You'll love it when it arrives and it sounds like you are ready to go when it does.

I suppose I move camera to intended object after aligning and locking Polarie to ball head and just go!

Yep, that's pretty much it. Once polaris is in line and locked just aim away, easy.
Although it's important to check that the tripod is level if you can and if you think you may have knocked it when moving the camera then just do a re-sight.
Did you order the polar scope too?
The biggest difference so far is dark skies, maybe if I was better at processing I could get a decent pic out of ones using the LP filter. Still there is no comparison to truly dark skies.
A pic I took last week on holiday in Crete shows the difference good skies make.
This was a 3 minute and 5 second exposure at 28mm with an ISO of 1600. I haven't done any processing of the pic apart from a resize to fit the forum, these were the first milky way pics I have shot too.
Hopefully I can process some of the others and post them when done as well.
