Kit Astro ispirato a Richard Tatti per Doppio Emisfero

Delivery and product at its best! I’ve already testet the Nomad and it works perfect!

Nomad star tracker Richard Tatti Edition (Northern Hemisphere Field Test)
I’ve just wrapped up a series of sessions with the Move Shoot Move (MSM) Nomad Richard Tatti Edition kit, and I felt it was worth highlighting just how "flawless" the new adaptations have made the workflow for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere. While Richard Tatti is a legend for his Southern Hemisphere work, this specific kit iteration solves the most common "friction points" that traditionally plague portable trackers. The leap from the original MSM Rotator to the Nomad is significant, but the real story here is the mechanical synergy of the new accessories.
In the Northern Hemisphere, polar alignment is often a trade-off between the speed of a laser and the precision of a polar scope. This kit bridges that gap perfectly with the calibrated laser pointer and the Arca-Swiss phone mount adaptation. By using the phone mount for a "rough-in" via an app and the laser for a precise strike on Polaris, I was able to achieve sub-pixel tracking on a 50mm lens for 90-second exposures within minutes of setting down my tripod. The new 360° Panning Base and the upgraded wedge are the unsung heroes here; they provide a much firmer foundation than previous versions, effectively doubling the torque capacity and eliminating the "creep" that used to occur when locking down heavy full-frame setups.
What makes these adaptations feel truly seamless is the way the kit handles the "Z-axis" challenge. The integration of the V-mount and the low-profile ball head allows for much more aggressive camera angles without the gear colliding with the tracker body—a common headache with the older Rotator. For anyone shooting from the Northern latitudes, where the celestial pole sits higher in the sky, these refinements mean you spend less time wrestling with your ball head and more time capturing clean, tracked data. It’s a rare example of a "travel" kit that doesn't feel like a compromise in the field.
Best regards,

I absolutely love my Nomad. It is simple to set up and use and is accurate.

Really loving the tracker. Easy to setup! Lightweight and compact so I can easily carry on hikes and potentially on backpacking trips. One of the best for wide angle tracking and panoramas. Highly recommend! You can check out a few images from my first time tracking in this review! I posted more images on my instagram https://www.instagram.com/kevinnyunphoto/ check me out there too!

Very quick shipment from Sydney warehouse. Clouds and moon have unfortunately prevented me from getting good use of the Nomad so far but what I have done looks pretty good. 50mm 60s is no problem and I managed to get a half decent Orion stack.

Ordered the “ Astro Kit Inspired by Richard Tatti for Dual Hemisphere”. On checkout I was offered a free MSM canvas tote bag, which were out of stock at the time. Rather than just saying “sorry, no stock”, Hanna, Head of Customer Service, contacted me and offered me my choice of some other accessories…at no additional charge.

The order was packed and shipped in a timely fashion. I’ve used it now for a few days shooting the Geminids Meteor shower. I’m totally impressed by the ease of set up (this is my first star tracker) and the smooth operation of the Nomad tracker! Set it, forget it and sit back to enjoy a night of star gazing.

A shout out to Richard Tatti for his excellent videos as well as his reviews and insights about the Nomad; they definitely helped me in my decision making process.

Now the fun begins

Good product.

The tracker works a treat! It's precise and just what you'd hope for.
On my first use without previous experience with using trackers managed to get 60s exposure using 200mm lens and capture image of the Lemmon commet I could previously only dream of.

My only problem was with the rotating base - it is too thin. The issue is that the locking screw ends lower than the Arca-swiss plate and when installed on a tripod with large diameter base plate (I am using Gitzo), the screw rubs against the plate, making it impossible to use it at all. If you have any kind of "travel" tripods though it's not an issue as they have much smaller base plates.
Also the ballhead I have receieved was faulty but it was immediately replaced by MSM, so thank you.
Overall, I think it's excellent product, well worth the money.
