Loving the MSM Nomad so far! Super compact and perfect for hiking to dark sites here in NZ. I reused the mobile holder from my older MSM tracker, and it still works great for fast polar alignment in the Southern Hemisphere — locked onto Sigma Octantis without a fuss.

The upgraded motors are solid — they easily handle my Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG DN Art, which is no lightweight. Tracking is smooth with wide-field lenses up to 85mm.

Not made for deep-sky or heavy setups, but for Milky Way, aurora, and clean nightscapes, it’s a little powerhouse. Quick setup, travel-friendly, and reliable under Southern skies.

Top notch product and service too boot. These folks take care of their customers. You won’t be disappointed!

The best thing about it is the simplicity, not a bunch of buttons nothing. A lightweight block of metal that just does the job. Takes my Sl2s and a sigma 14-24 2.8 no problem.
Aligning is very easy with the laser, I’m much more willing to move to get different angles if I need to.
Highly recommended!!

Very easy to use and it's doing what it has to do.

I purchased the Nomad Grab & Go and am very satisfied with the product. It exceeded all my expectations. It makes Milky Way and astrophotography much easier.

Finally had a chance to use my new Nomad and it was so much fun! Easy to use right out of the box and I got some great results my first night using it. Looking forward to using the Nomad a lot more this summer.

The Nomad MSM is an incredibly compact and lightweight star tracker, perfect for wide-field astrophotography and Milky Way shots. Setup is fast and easy, especially with the laser or polar scope. Despite its size, tracking accuracy is impressive — I’ve captured sharp 2-3 minute exposures at focal lengths up to 85mm.

It’s USB rechargeable, travel-friendly, and ideal for both beginners and experienced users looking for a portable solution. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep things light without sacrificing results.

The MSm grab and Go star tracker arrived very quickly and in good condition, Great customer service and once w eused the mSm is has worked excellently. we ar every pleased with this all round. Thank you so much

Initially I had doubts about how well this small Nomad tracker and wedge would achieve and maintain polar alignment accuracy, using just my PS Align Pro app, no laser, no polar scope. I used the ‘southern hemisphere’ method with the Nomad tracker and wedge, and a sturdy tripod. I setup a full frame camera, hefty prime lens, fairly heavy RRS ball head with a panoramic rotator and z plate. I do have several years of experience in polar aligning, using polar scopes, with and without lasers on heavier, more complex trackers. I would sometimes dread dealing with low light scopes and the often tedious process of guiding the wedge to pinpoint Polaris on the reticle. The Nomad southern hemisphere setup, along with PS Align Pro app has set me free! In a few short minutes I am taking test shots. And alignment holds through the entire shoot. After more than 90 minutes tracking, I put on a 50mm for 2 minute exposures and still had pinpoint stars. Easy to pack, quick to set up, align, and maintain alignment, what’s not exciting about that. I’m not ready to sell my heavier tracking gear but having this lighter option has been a welcomed addition.

Gràcies al Nomad m'he iniciat de la millor manera en l'astrofotografia. Estic realment content pel seu bon funcionament , la seva lleugeresa i la seva facilitat d'ús. Una gran compra!
