Description

This accessory provides a compass with a bubble level and an altitude scale which can be used to help to locate Polaris. This can be beneficial for solar imaging or imaging at night when Polaris cannot be seen (for example from a south-facing balcony or garden). The unit attaches to the accessory shoe on the Polarie Star Tracker or any instrument equipped with a camera accessory shoe.

Easy 3 Step Set Up:

  • Set altitude scale to your location
  • Point the Polar Meter toward North
  • Level the meter so that the bubble is centered
  • Polaris is viewed through Polarie's Polar viewer
