Once it is aligned properly, it is quite good. Tracking accuracy is very good for 1-2 min with a 105mm lens with a cropped sensor, but getting it polar aligned and keeping it that way is very difficult. The wedge and tripod are not really up to the task.

The wedge needs to be fully tightened in ALT to hold the position, any tightening of the alt lock after knocks it out of alignment. Azimuth backlash with the screws is so much it takes a long time and is frustrating.

Now once you finally have it polar aligned, you have to man handle the camera to where the target may be, but first, you have to focus! Both these require physical movement which generally will knock the mount out of polar alignment as the wedge and tripod are so flimsy. I've had the screw locks on the tripod loosen themselves over time and one leg retract by itself. Nearly every session after just framing the target I check and see the polar alignment has been knocked out and have to unframe the target and redo it.

Despite my knowledge of the night sky, lack of GOTO does get annoying when one's DSLR doesn't have a moveable LCD screen. A lot of effort and time is taken up finding and framing the object, and focusing, all while bending a lot. That isn't a fault with the mount, just my own experience.

There is an optional wedge, upgraded bolts and heavy duty tripod, but then this becomes neither affordable or light and portable. I do like the mount, but these are my gripes.

Read, read, read the instruction manual. It's not the best and I did have to seek some other info, but it does explain what you need to know. However, you need to update the firmware on the tracker out of the box - this I found out after a clear night and unsurprisingly...terrible images. Major frustration insued as you can only update the firmware via a PC - which we do not have at home.

This aside, the mount (updated with friends laptop) came with me on holidays to France where we were near some quite dark skies with great visibility and performed flawlessly. While I'd like to be able to set all the image shooting up through the app, it won't work with my Sony mirrorless camera (that I've yet figured out) via the snap cable. Probably possible, but I can use an intervalometer.

Very happy so far for the Milky Way images I've taken with my 14mm lens. This was always going to be the stepping stone to a larger setup in the future, but I have plans to take it travelling with me whenever we go away camping.

I bought this as part of my first steps into long exposure astrophotography. Although I haven't had chance to use it as much as I would have liked, the odd chances I have had I found that it is easy to setup as use. Polar alignment can be a little tricky at first but after a few minutes of trial and error I soon got the hang of it. The first night I used it I was able to easily achieve 2 minute exposures without no star trail. Highly recommended

Usual very quick service from FLO,

Awesome star tracker for any beginners, easy to get set up and running. Only problem I got is that I live in wales and it’s either raining or cloudy all the time

Ordered this for light weight on the go astro observing and imaging.
FLO as always were excellent with delivery.
The quality of this mount is impressive, it simply oozes quality at every turn. Even the packaging is good enough to warrant buying a flight case or back pack for to keep everything together when not being used.
The APP was easily downloaded from Apple Store and seems quite stable thus far, even that has some nice touches like the polar scope alignment utility tool.
The only niggle that I have is that it would have been nice to have a red LED built in for the polar scope rather than rely on the external illuminator ... but its good to see that was included in the package and not something you would have to buy separately.
Though I fully appreciate that this mount system is designed for use on a quality after market tripod, it would have been nice to have it compatible with the more robust tripod telescope mounts in the skywatcher range. Initially I thought that it might adapt for use on my sturdy EQ5 tripod but no such luck! I purchased the far superior Sky-Watcher 3/8" Stainless Steel Tripod (1.75" Diameter Legs) with the Sky-Watcher AZ5 Deluxe Extension Tube from a separate supplier and these are proving to be an excellent addition for use here at home, saving the photographic tripod for light weight field trips.
I also purchased the Shutter realise cable for the mount SNAP function from FLO. After doing some research on line the C1 cable (FLO advertise this for Canon) was found to be compatible with my Pentax DSLR.
So overall very pleased thus far. If you are looking for a light weight , and importantly portable, mount for simple visual imaging and some basic astro photography then I would recommend this system.

Okay there are a few things not right and that well documented (for example that battery cover that just doesn't stay on, or the polar scope illuminator that was must have been a late Friday afternoon bit of design), but otherwise what can I say - a really well made piece of kit.

Really easy to set up - watch loads of YouTube videos to see how easy it is. Attach your camera and get snapping away! My first image was of the Orion Nebula (as all newbies do) and I was really happy with the result for a first attempt. Any issues with the image are not down to the SWSA but to the user! With practice I can only hope to get better.

There is nothing I can really say about the SWSA that other reviewers of YouTubers have said. I am just really happy.

And great service from FLO. I have used them a few times now and have always found that email enquires are answered really quickly, and I am kept informed about delivery etc. Can't fault them on service.

I am using it with my Sony A7iii, SIGMA 100-400mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS Contemporary (& Sigma 1.4 converter) connected up with a Pluto S2 cable (see below) to enable control via my Android phone and the SAM app.
Initially a few problems setting up and correctly aligning with Polaris, but some good Youtube videos have put me straight (see below)
My only (So far anyway) problems are those of manually focusing the lens to infinity - suffering the common issue of "infinity and beyond" with autofocus lenses - but patience will get me through that hurdle.

The Pluto S2 cable was difficult to locate (Sky-Walker don't list a cable suitable for Sony "E" mounts) - so you might find this link of use:

Fantastic service from FLO who delivered star tracker within two days of ordering. Build quality is excellent and the clutch was fine. The polarscope reticle was spot on as well.
I found the issue was the SA Console app downloaded from Google play store. It just would not work. WiFi was fine but the moment you entered the astrophotography panel and tried to run the shooting program, it refused to start. This may be an android issue and certainly reviews on the app weren't good.
In the end I downloaded the app again but this time from the skywatcher home pages ..see support menu ..... It then worked brilliantly. It was a frustrating couple of hours trying to get the Google play store version to work though.
Other than that full marks as always to FLO ... Their ordering dispatch and customer service is first rate. Thank you to the team

I have never used any product, that has such a good build quality. It's extremely durable, quiet, has a beautiful design and is easy to use. An absolute must for beginners that want to go deeper in astrophotography!
