Product Information
Overview
In order for any star tracker to work the way it's designed, polar alignment has to be done in the first place. It is the act of aligning the rotation axis of a star tracker in parallel with Earth's self-spin axis. How do you know when your Move Shoot Move Star Tracker's rotation axis is aligned? Well, the Polar Scope we have here does just that!

Customer Reviews
The new Nomad tracker is a big step forward. Smaller, stronger and more reliable . Highly recommended.
Polar scope and the reticular pattern are great. I am able to polar-align in minutes. in areas with low intermediate light pollution using the laser along with the polar scope make things a lot easier. The fluorescent eliminator make things extremely easy in the dark. I am new to this hobby. This is the second stacked picture I took, a otal of 28 pictures of 45 sseconds each. I wish I ccould have taken more but the clouds covered the sky soon after. I used a Canon t3i with an EF 100-300 lens.
Very well made . Thanks Very Much
I’ve been able to achieve accurate polar alignment with the MSM Polarscope doing deep sky shots resulting in 60+ second exposures with no star tracking.
I did do a calibration since it was a little off when I received it but that was a simple process.
The Illuminator is very effective. I simply keep a small flashlight in my pocket and very briefly expose the illuminator to the light before use. No wires or batteries involved.
When used with a polar alignment app on the phone, achieving a perfect alignment is quick and easy.
I highly recommend this product.
I broke my polar scope light. Hannah was great at sorting everything out and making sure I got the right items
The order shipped quickly and was received in a timely manner
I always find the company responsive and they are very helpful with any queries
The simplicity of the Nomade and sturdy structure are the strong points which opens up the stars and a universe of potential adventure creative photography.
I do hope some type of manual will be created to help novices answer questions that may arise.

It is a good quality. Needs a bit of reading an preperation to use it. To get everything in focus you need to adopt it to your eyes and an the other side get the focus for the stars .i glued in a self lighting tape to light the tubus and the scale after highlighted with a torch. Seems that is functioning very good!
If the polarscope should be very precise you should look thrie it at daylight and habe a look for a house chimmney or so. After twisting the PS for 180 degrees the vhimnry should stay in the same place. If not there are very little screews 3
Just loose one for 30 degrees and tighten the opposite for that amount. You should half the error distance by doing this a several times. Then test it again. Good luck for your alignment to the stars!!!
The polar scope is so easy to use. When the scope is used in concert with the laser, polar alignment is spot-on!
Good stuff, no minus what so ever.
Maybe one thing, that I dident get the information about a new rotator was coming out. I had ofcourse bought that one instead.
But happy enought with mine anyway
