Much better than expected!

Honestly, I wasn't sure how much I would use a star tracker, but the Nomad now stays in my camera bag at all times. My only regret is not ordering the Polar Alignment Scope. The laser pointer works well with a wide-angle lens for exposures of one minute or less. However, if you're planning to do very long exposures, I would recommend getting both the laser pointer and the polar scope. I’ll be ordering the polar scope soon.

MSM Nomad Tracker

Perfect for night sky landscapes. Light, easy to use, excellent performance and well priced. Unbeatable.

Small size, great performance

I used the MSM a few times, and it does what it promeses.
One small item that could be improved is the switch. It is so small that it is not easy to operate. Also the N and S are difficult to read in the dark (with red light)
I made a picture of the switch because i could not see if i choose N or S. Bigger white letters would be a improvement.

Easy to align, simple to start taking pictures

I would recomend you have a nice heavier tripod to start with, If not, some way to deflect wind on a lighter tripod. Using the Laser scope and the Wedge option make it a simple adjustment to do fine alignment with Polaris. Also do the alignment with the camera attached as adding the camera after can throw off the alignment. Gross adjustments are done with tripod. Then lock everything down.
I also have the easy focus lens set and found it easier to setup focus on something like Jupiter as it is bright enough to be easily found.
I used an external shutter control where I could set a delay to the fist shot. and then set the shutter time and then an interval between shots and shot count. dont be tempted to fiddle with this bettween or during shots as this can induce vibrations.
Once i had nail the focus and remembered my good practice of not fiddling while shooting it worked like a dream.
The attached picture is my first 45 second exposure with no trails. (without the MSM i could not go above 6 seonds with out trails)

First impression

This a a great little tracker, so far so good, always check that your tripod is leveled out first makes all the difference.

Simple to use and it works

I’m new to astrophotography and it worked the first time. My first night I took photos of the moon. Once I had the moon where I wanted it in my viewfinder it never moved. It gave me all the opportunity I needed to adjust camera settings etc. I look forward to taking more sophisticated, long exposure photographs.of the night sky. I will get the headband light so make it easier to work in the dark.

Good but not perfect

It works great except for a design issue: I have to maneuver my ball head where the camera mounts in order for the laser point to shine through to the sky and not get blocked. This is a real pain. In the original version, you could place the pointer wherever you needed to. I prefer this method, but the placement should have been much better. Otherwise, it’s a great device.
