Why these polar wedges help you take better astrophotographs
What’s the difference compared to a standard tripod head? If you want to photograph the starry sky using a mini mount, you’re bound to have asked yourself this question. You can also align a tripod head with the North Star, but that’s not what it was designed for. It offers free movement in many directions – but the alignment remains imprecise and you need to know exactly how your tripod head behaves to take successful photos. Polar wedges make it easier for you! They help you align your camera precisely, to the nearest degree, and in a way that can be verified at any time, with the North Celestial Pole. This allows you to take better tracked shots or use telephoto lenses successfully.
Simply attach it and get started
Mount, align and get started: it’s that simple with the Omegon Horizon PW 10 polar wedge. Your alignment remains stable all night long.
