PhotoRobot is a simple, lightweight (980g), but very reliable, expandable, motorised panoramic and astro photo tracking head, now even with Polar Align Assist function!
Simple and functional construction that actually works very well!
With a load capacity of 3 kg, this is the best value of such device in this category.

For intermediate use other, more expensive and more precise, devices with special functions are available from us as well: Skywatcher AZ GOTO (Merlin) mount for panoramic photography, Fornax-10 for long exposure astro photography and Vixen Polarie or Baader Nano Tracker for TWAN.
