Star Adventurer vs EQ3-2


Hoody

Recommended Posts

I've been using the little star adventurer for a while now and quite happy with the results, but I just got my first refractor for observing and it came with an EQ3-2. 

I'm wondering whether there would be an improvement getting rid of the star adventurer and replacing it with some motors for the EQ3-2?

I usually use my 5D IV and Canon lenses for my imaging, which can get rather heavy for the star adventurer.

Good question, I think that the SA might just have the edge in tracking accuracy but its close. The EQ3-2 however will be fine with a DSLR and lenses with the added advantage of more load capacity for visual use with a scope and perhaps some Luna/Planetary imaging where tracking accuracy is less important.
