A star tracker mount to travel anywhere!

An ultra-compact, small and lightweight equatorial mount (star tracker) usable on the top of a camera tripod like a tripod head. Taking pictures of the starry skies is no more challenge. You can bring it with you in a backpack, not merely when traveling but also going away to mountainous areas or overseas to seek more impressive starry skies.

Weighing 740g only that you can carry around easily with luggage and camera bag, this is a lightweight compact item to shoot nightscape photograph. Through a simple setting, the POLARIE can move the camera according to the movement of the celestial objects and enable automatic tracking which makes it possible to take a pin point stars for extended exposure time.

With the starry sky as one landscape, leave the beauty of the earth and the universe in one picture ... That is "Nightscape Photograph". POLARIE expands the world of nightscape photography, and everyone can experience the real pleasure of shooting.

"Nightscape photograph" is a photograph of stars and scenery together, such as the Milky Way and Mountains spreading in the sky, or constellations and buildings. Unlike 'Astrophotography' which enlarges one point of a starry sky, it is important to mainly use a wide-angle lens in "nightscape photograph", how to combine stars and scenery. The possibility of the composition is infinite, it is a landscape photograph of a new generation that anyone can enjoy easily.

POLARIE Star Tracker is a motor driven camera platform that moves according to the movement of stars. By shooting with camera on the POLARIE and on a tripod, it becomes possible to incorporate pin-point stars beautifully into a work of art!
