The iOptron SkyGuider Pro with integrated iPolar electronic polar scope is a compact yet capable tracking platform built specifically for wide-field astrophotography and lightweight imaging rigs. Whether you're shooting the Milky Way from a dark-sky desert or capturing time-lapse images from your backyard, the SkyGuider Pro gives you precision tracking in a palm-sized package—without the bulk or complexity of a full equatorial mount. This all-metal mount features a precision worm gear drive capable of sidereal, solar, and lunar tracking rates with quiet, smooth motion, and the internal rechargeable lithium battery provides up to 20 hours of tracking on a single charge, giving you full-night performance in the field with no external power required. The iPolar camera works with Windows software to give you a live, easy-to-follow interface for polar alignment—even if you can't see Polaris, providing precise results in minutes.
