Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer 2i Motorised Mount – Pro Package
The Star Adventurer Astro Package is an ultra-portable equatorial mount kit ideal for small telescopes or for astrophotography with camera lenses up to 200-300mm in focal length. It fits on most astronomical, photo, or video tripods via its 1/4″ and 3/8″ adaptor. The mount satisfies all the needs of the astrophotographer; with a simple turn of the dial select lunar, solar, or star tracking modes, or four speeds from 0.5x to 12x to create interesting time-lapse videos with your DSLR. Moreover, it contains pre-programmed parameters to assist your DSLR via the optional shutter release cable. The Star Adventurer mount features a V-style dovetail saddle for compatible accessories and optical tube assemblies. The mount can be supplied with 4 AA batteries or via mini USB port.
Precise Polar Alignment for Pinpoint Stars Astrophotography
The integrated Polar Scope with an included illuminator helps the polar alignment process in both the Northern or Southern hemispheres. That is a great advantage for achieving professional astronomical photos. The equatorial wedge is equipped with fine adjustment knobs in both azimuth and latitude axes for easily centring the celestial pole without moving the tripod. Additionally, the auto guide system enhances the tracking in right ascension allowing longer exposures with telephoto lenses.
To fit a camera to the Star Adventurer, either a tripod Ball Head is required (not supplied) or the Dovetail L-Bracket. The Dovetail L-Bracket, used in conjunction with the optional counterweight shaft/counterweight also allows small telescopes (e.g. Maksutov 90mm), with a 1/4″-20 tripod fitting, to be used with the Star Adventurer. A small telescope and camera (using a ball head, not supplied) can be mounted simultaneously on the Dovetail L-bracket. Using just the dovetail bar from the Dovetail L-Bracket, two cameras can be mounted at the same time using two tripod ball heads (not supplied).

Thank you for submitting a review!
Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
The service was excellent, friendly and helpful staff. Fast delivery too. The tracker is well made, easy to use and does a great job. Being a pro pack, it should really have come with a scope polar illuminator. Without this illuminator the polar scope is of no use as the reticle cannot be seen in the dark. I find it much easier to polar align using a digital compass (i.e. my phone) and a digital protractor. The on/off dial could have been stiffer to turn as it is easy to accidentally switch the unit on and drain the battery.
Thank you Jacob's for your excellent service. The unit arrive in the South Island 3 days after ordering and was excellently packaged.
The SkyWatcher is simple to use and easy for me, a starter astrophotographer, with all the options I need to get some great shots. I just need to wait for the rain to stop for me to try the unit. Thank you, Barry - Christchurch
