iOptron SkyTracker Pro for shooting the night sky

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. If you are a night sky enthusiast, this is the right time of year to find a place with little or no light pollution and try your hand photographing the Milky Way. A mirrorless camera with a fast wide angle lens will get you started. But for long exposures….a sky tracker can be worthwhile. One of the companies focused on that space is iOptron where sales and marketing manager Roger Rivers says...the SkyTracker Pro moves the camera at the speed needed …“It creates an optical illusion where you can take a longer term exposure which enables you to see more structure in the Milky Way and in deep space objects as well as giving the illusion that the objects in the foreground aren’t moving. So that’s the reason why these are so popular.”Check out iOptron.com for more. And we’ll have more on night sky photography in the days to come. You can find us at Techstination.com. I’m Fred Fishkin.
