    Star tracker you use and/or recommend

    Hi, I am looking into acquiring a good star tracker for astrophotography. I have Benro Polaris in mind now (it attracts me because of its many uses and automation besides deep space features, but must work with a phone is a killer to me). Still need others' experience using their star trackers...

    May I say it's the front gold part of the right cufflink that shows a sign of softness (the logo and the rectangular hole)?
