Tips before purchase

For Skywatcher users,

The adapter will fit the polar scope with a diameter of around 29.03mm.

For iOptron users,

Please check the threaded part on the mount of the polar scope before you purchase. Currently, the adapter can only work with the version in which the threaded part is inside. Please refer to the example below.

Quick Polar Finder for Skywatcher Star Adventurer/Skywatcher Star Adventurer2i

Quick Polar Finder for iOptron Skyguider Pro

Introduction

Polar aligning with laser pointer is intuitive, convenient and starter friendly, but it's only possible with Move Shoot move star tracker up to now. We want to share the pleasure of laser with other popular star trackers, namely, SkyWatcher Star Adventurer and iOptron SkyGuider pro.

Introducing Quick Polar Finder. Attach it to your equatorial mount, aim the laser beam for Polaris and you've got a fairly close alignment. For Astro-landscape photography, you are good to start shooting right away. For deep space object photography, simply take the Quick Polar Finder off and do an accurate alignment with the polar scope. In either case, you get to shoot the sky in much less time and probably save your back in the long run.

A thank you note

Glen Tillyard's 'loo roll' laser adapter for his SkyWatcher Star Adventurer inspired us to redesign our initial prototype. We appreciate his kind disclosure of this genius work!

Notice

Quick Polar Finder only works at locations where Polaris is visible.
Quick Polar Finder includes a 520-532nm laser pointer with an output less than 5mw. Please refer to local laws for regulation on laser products before purchasing.

Quick Polar Finder to Skywatcher Star Adventurer 2i

I had been having difficulty doing polar alignment with the illuminator supplied by Skywatcher. Purchasing the Quick Polar Finder by MSM has totally eradicated any problems I encountered. It is quick, easy to use and accurate and has made my initial difficulties with polar alignment a thing of the past.

Super Polaris Locator

Excellent and robust product to establish initial polar alignment with the Star Adventurer 2i before fine-tuning with the units polarscope.

MSM system

This system is very reliable, very lightweight, and easy to set up and using.
Will be recommend to buy this system with my friends.

revolutionized my alignment process

This product makes my alignment process so much easier! It's easy to set up and lets you get a rough alignment on Polaris in seconds, then looking through the polar scope is easy to find Polaris and nail down your alignment. This is a must have for any sky watcher and IOptron owner

MSMs polarscope is a very nice addition to my portable grab-and-go astrophotography collection. Finally, a chance to experiment with a longer lens! Do a quick alignment with the lazer, and then tune that alignment with the polarscope. With care and patience, it is very quick to polar align and start capturing light. My first light test on Sadr in Cygnus with one minute subs at 135mm show no sign of trailing. (Bortle 4, Nikon d5500, Samyang 135mm, 64 lights and 24 darks, stacked in Siril). Very happy with the results from the addition of MSMs polarscope. Using the universal bracket for lazer and polarscope also makes things tidy, lightweight, and easy to setup.

Excellent

Love the laser pointer and the brackets. Fit perfectly. It gets the alignment done in seconds. I could track 2 min exposure with my 50mm lens and get pinpoint stars. Highly recommend it!

ฺBest value for money for a star tracker.

MSM is a lightweight star tracker for travel and is easy to use.

Polar scope laser

I still have the first version of the laser and got this one as it is adjustable. The laser seems well made but I still need to play with it a bit more as I’m getting 2 different alignments using the same bracket between version 1 and version 2.

Star Focus Filter - looks the business!

This looks so much better than those 3d printed options available on "the bay". The finer lines should (hopefully) help to get a more precise focus. Can't wait to test this on a W/A lens - just need some clear nights.

polar alignment wedge

solid, steady wedge, fitted to existing tripod without need for any additional bits. really nice bit of kit!

Great camera accessory - I love it!

Does exactly what it claims, and my setup was really easy. The tripod makes a huge difference to my photography. I definitely recommend this tripod and attachments. Fabulous.
