Fotokaamerate juhendisüsteem AP Vixen

The AP Photo Guider is a lightweight star tracker for long exposure times in astrophotography.

It has the same precise properties as the AP mount, but is easier to transport.

The AP Photo Guider is supplied with the STAR BOOK ONE control and guarantees precise tracking even with long exposure times.

It was developed to be able to take point-shaped star images with larger telephoto lenses.

The STAR BOOK ONE control has different speeds, e.g. Sun and moon speed.

It also offers backlash compensation and PEC.

The STAR BOOK ONE has an autoguider input for maximum tracking accuracy in long-term exposure. The newly developed polar finder offers a simple method of alignment. You use 2 known stars and align them with the markings of the crosshairs. It is therefore no longer necessary to set the hour angle.
