I found it funny that the PoleMaster was so amazingly essential to me that I almost sold off all my Losmandy Polar scopes thinking who needs them? But I also came to realize that if I'm not imaging that night why carry the laptop out into the dark with me when I have that optical device already installed in the mount to do the same thing? For a visual observer using the same mount for imaging IME the PoleMaster camera is as essential as a polar scope. I had to own both at the same time to come to that realization, I even updated both of my polar scopes with the reticles to the 2030 version years ago because of the PoleMaster.??
In case you need an updated polar scope reticle for your Losmandy or AP polar scope Astro Hutech was who I bought them from. I am not sure they are still available but they might have more by now.?
