iOptron iEQ30\/iEQ45 iPolar Electronic Polar Finder<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No more kneeling under the mount! With the iOptron iEQ30\/iEQ45 iPolar Electronic Polar Finder, you align your telescope to the celestial pole with lightning speed and extreme precision - directly through your screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"iOptron<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The built-in camera shows the exact position of the celestial pole AND where your mount is pointed. You simply use the azimuth and elevation knobs to make both points coincide. Perfect alignment is that easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The iPolar automatically calculates the correct pole position based on date and time. So you don't have to guess where exactly the Pole Star should be. The sensitive sensor and wide field of view ensure that even with a rough alignment, you will quickly find the correct direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always accurate - anywhere in the world<\/strong>
Whether you are observing in the northern or southern hemisphere, the iPolar adjusts. Even at low latitudes, atmospheric refraction is automatically accounted for. This keeps your alignment reliable no matter where you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use with Mac & iOS<\/strong>
Working on a Mac? No problem. There is a dedicated macOS app available in the Mac App Store. For iPhone or iPad, you can use the iPolar Mobile app - combined with the iMate Astronomy Control Box to connect to the camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that the Mac app is paid and the iOS version requires additional accessories. Check your system beforehand to make sure it meets the requirements so you can work without any problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Tip:<\/strong>
Each iPolar is made for a specific iOptron model. So check that this version fits your mount - in this case, the iEQ30 or iEQ45<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
