Thanks for the advises, Elp and Lawurence. Actually, I am thinking of having a dovetail plate as the balancing rod. The plate is connected to the base with a short rod (M12 to M8; if I remember correctly the dimension). Then, I can connect the wide angled camera onto the dovetail plate, and act as the balancing weight. Tele Lens will still be mounted on top of the mount. Not sure if every thing will hold up or not.

Thanks, but seems that both cameras are setup on the same side of the mount. I am thinking of mounting the 2 cameras on opposite sides of the mount. So that they balance to each other.

Can you show your setup and suggest where do you get the parts?

Star Adventurer, version I. I am more concern on if there is available of parts that allow me to do such a setup.

I believed to be around 6kg.

Hi, Considering of getting this for DPO. Just wondering, is it possible set up similar to the image on AZ-GTi equatorial moder? APSC camera with tamron 150-600mm lens, and full frame camera with wide angle lens? Regards.

A big thank you for alll your contributions. I main intention of getting ASIAIR is to aid me in doing the polar alignment; I have never thought of using it to control my camera. Since the choice is there, I might as well use it. 🙂 @LaurenceT, thanks for your suggestion. @Elp, thanks for your affirmation. @AstroMuni, I had tried doing the polar alignment in Australia before; there is no brightest star near the south polar pole for the alignment, and you will need to look for the other 3 stars (also not that bright). I look into the scope until my eye went blur and still do not get a good alignment. As mentioned in my initial post, I will mainly shoot the stars when travelling, I think I will go with the ASIAIR and Lithium LT. Thanks Again. Cheers.

Hi, I am looking into Astrophotography, but information is abit too overwhelming for me. I have a Nikon D600, Tamron 150-600mm lens, and the star adventure. I am staying in Singapore, and only a brief period in Australia. Which hardware/software is easier to use for polar alignment? Astroberry, ASIAIR? Do note that I need to bring Power Supply (preferably Lithium ion), which may also face some restriction by airlines. I am thinking of getting the SVBONY SV165 Mini Guide Scope 30mm F4 and ZWO ASI120MM Mini for the alignment. Just to confirm, the ZWO ASI120MM is responsible for the autoguiding of the star adventure? Regards.
