I’ve been using a more traditional tracker from iOptron for quite a while and also use the ZWO AM5 equatorial mount for large telescopes. The MSM nomad is a perfect addition that is *much* faster and simple to set up. It is a perfect match for all my camera-based astrophotography including my R1 and R5 bodies.
all good - thank you!
I'd say without Richard Tatti YouTube channel, a tracker would still be too daunting for us in the southern hemisphere. Good on him for explaining the quick alignment better than any manufacturers manual.
Delivery has been good enough.
Small and easy to pack away to take it to go, or great to set up at home. Easy to use and consistent results gives this a lot of value for its price.
An ingenious little tracker! fits perfectly in my luggage. easy to set up and use.
I was even able to use my 400mm lens for the Orion Nebula. with an exposure time of about 30 seconds! respect!
It is amazing how small this Nomad is but what an huge amount of benefits it brings with. It is very small, very light weight and it works very smooth and without any problems so far. There was a little Problem witha missing part in my order but the support was super fast and super friendly so that my problem was fixed in a few days. Salut to this and thank you guys!!!
Both the service when buying and the actual tracker is really great. I’m still waiting for more days with clear skies but the first couple of days went really well with 200mm focal length and 60s exposure. I’m still a beginner but the tracker is really easy to use and the size makes it really easy to bring on vacations and hikes. Looking forward to many more days under the stars with this tracker
Simple and easy to use. Super easy and light to carry.
Have only owned the MSM Nomad a short time and haven't managed to try it out properly yet but, after calibrating the laser pointer, I did test it out and managed a 6 minute exposure at 30mm focal length with absolutely no sign of star trailing. Impressive! The rest is now down to me...
