iOptron iPolar or QHY PoleMaster

[Starflyer]

I'm thinking of getting one of these handy little devices but can't decide which one.  It'll be used on an iOptron CEM60 , a SW NEQ6 and a SW AZEQ6-GT

I'd love to hear from people who have experience of using either or both and their views on the hardware and the software.

Reading up on the software for both I can't say I'm that overly impressed with either, I've used Sharpcap's PA routine with a finder scope in the past and that seemed more intuitive.  Can I use Shapcap with these devices instead of the supplied software, has anyone else done this and what are your opinions?

 

Thanks in advance,

Ian

Hi Ian, I use SharpCap Pro with my Polemaster and it works superbly, When my new CEM40EC arrives I will see if that works with SharpCap as well.

Hi John,

Thanks for your insight.  Reading up on various reviews I think I'm going to go for the iPolar, I'll feedback here once I've had a chance to try it.

 

Cheers,

Ian
