Difference between MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD and MSM Rotator:

  1. Improved attachment points.Ā The previous manufacturing tolerances were fine for Astro-landscape but deep-sky needs a firmer foundation.

    1. The MSM Rotator, due to its design, required specific weight positioning to keep the ball head secure; this has been completely eliminated.Ā Ā 

    2. The laser now screws into the tracker eliminating any chance of wobble.Ā Ā 

    3. The industry standard quick-release plate on the bottom is secured in 2 places preventing any twisting of the tracker on its mount.Ā Ā 

  2. Improved load capacity.Ā Ā 

    1. The hardware has been built to withstand twice the amount of torque as the MSM Rotator.Ā 

    2. Where the MSM Rotator was only designed for wide-angle Astro-landscape, the MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD has been designed with wide-field deep-sky use in mind.Ā Ā 

    3. Availability of an optional counterweight system for more experienced users to go even deeper.

  3. Simplified operation.Ā  By designing and building a device with a narrower focus we were able to make it better while keeping the size down.

    1. One 3-position switch; Northern hemisphere, Southern, or Off.Ā Ā 

    2. In order to improve on our goals of ease of use and portability, the non-tracker function of the MSM Rotator has been left off, greatly simplifying the operation of the new tracker.Ā Ā 

    3. The MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD is focused on one function, star tracking.Ā  Ā (MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD can be used to take timelapse of the night sky, but it does not have the so called Move Shoot Move timelapse mode of the previous Rotator)Ā 

  4. Reduced size and weight.Ā Ā A foremost feature of our trackers is portability.Ā 

    1. Our users take our trackers with them even when backpacking to some of the most remote areas of the world.Ā 

    2. We worked to make storing and transporting the tracker even easier so you'll always want to have it with you when traveling.

    3. The tracker is called MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD for a reason; it is designed to travel with you wherever you go.Ā Ā

Just Great

Easy to setup, great performance! Made my my first foto of a starry sky and had no problems. It simply works - easier and better than expected

Great service, quality, light weight and compact size

This is a beginner's review.
-First, customer service was excellent! Ordered wrong item combination, but got a fast response and allowed me to change and receive a refund. Helped me track the item as there was delay due to typhoon...despite being affected, the delivery was still quite fast.
-Items received in good order. Almost all pieces are metal, great quality. Feel very solid after setting up, haven't tested the tracking accuracy though.
-It is light and compact: I bought the phone kit (for Southern Hemisphere shoot), plus the wedge and a V mount, total weight is only about 1.4 kg, and when put back to the boxes, the total volume is less than 5L, and even smaller without the boxes.

-Possible improvement: it would be nice to have a larger bag to put the Nomad and all accessories together. Now it only has a tiny bag for Nomad alone.

Exactly what I was after

My nomad is compact, light and feels good quality with its metal finish. I've gotten some good photos with it already and look forward to using it more now that long winter nights are fast approaching.

Nomad

I was able to charge the on board battery and research how to use the scope the same day I received the Nomad and was taking photos that same night. My 28-70mm zoom lens no longer has star trails using the laser. My 400mm requires pretty precise polar alignment with the scope but once set, I have no issues pushing past a 30 second exposure.

I wish there was instructions on using the scope and a polar clock, it took me a while to find a good app to use with it. Currently using Polar Scope for Android to get the alignment correct.

ottimo prodotto

Ottimo inseguitore, leggero e abbastanza preciso. Sto provando diverse ottiche per capire fino a dove si può spingere. Sarebbe stupendo se in futuro ci fosse la possibilità di un controllo per una piccola guida in modo da poter usare ottiche più spinte.

Easy to use

A very easy to use star tracker. The only thing I miss, is a case to put all the accessories together. There is a case only for the Nomad.

So far so good

The moon and weather were not ideal. I might test it again this week-end, but the settings are fine and easy - thanks for having added the video with the phone setup.
