Description

After a lot of frustration and time consumed to make the AZ-GTI with EQ mode work properly, I've accepted that this is not gonna happen... So I've pulled the trigger and bought the iOptron SkyGuider Pro. This product just works!

Here is my first attempt to have 2 DSLRs for my first 3-4 Bortle sky session. A Canon 77D with Samyang 135mm for Rho Ophiuchus and a Canon 77D with Canon 24mm for a Milky Way mosaic.

I've achieved with no issues 2,5' exposures - unguided - for the 135mm, only with the traditional polar scope. Probably it can go even further but I was more than happy with that. And the most amazing thing is that I had no star trails, not on a single image :-)

So AZ-GTI will go back to the original firmware and serve me with my Mak127 for planetary and the SkyGuider Pro for my DSO.
