William Optics Polar Wedge High Latitude for SkyGuider Pro 1.25\": The wedge your tracker deserves<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The William Optics pole wedge (High Latitude) replaces the standard wedge of the iOptron SkyGuider Pro with a significantly more rigid and finely adjustable version. You place the wedge between the tripod and tracker and set the pole altitude with precision adjustment knobs: millimeter work instead of struggling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standard wedge is sufficient for wide-angle lenses, but when working with telephoto lenses or a small telescope, the wedge determines the quality of your polar alignment and thus your maximum exposure time. This High Latitude version is made for higher latitudes and is therefore the logical choice for the Netherlands and Belgium (around 51 to 53 degrees North latitude).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
