NOMAD vs No NOMAD

Tired of those pesky star trails and frustrating noise in your long-exposure shots?

Say goodbye to limitations with NOMAD. This innovative star tracker operates by moving your camera in the opposite direction but at the same speed as the Earth's rotation, effectively eradicating any trailing stars from your images. Now, you can effortlessly capture stunning long-exposure photographs with unparalleled clarity and precision. With NOMAD, the sky's the limit – literally.

Easy to set up

We've made the task of Polar Alignment as easy as just aiming the pointer at Polaris. Then, just set your exposure and focus, and you're ready to go.

The origin of the NOMAD Tracker is based on user feedback and our desire to provide the easiest-to-use, most portable, inexpensive star tracker.

Grab and Go

Compared with other star trackers out there, you'll see NOMAD takes up much less space.

The NOMAD was designed as the perfect successor to the MSM and has some key differences:

  • Improved attachment points. The previous manufacturing tolerances were fine for Astro-landscape but deep-sky needs a firmer foundation.
  • The MSM Rotator, due to its design, required specific weight positioning to keep the ball head secure; this has been completely eliminated.
  • The laser now screws into the tracker eliminating any chance of wobble.
  • The industry standard quick-release plate on the bottom is secured in 2 places preventing any twisting of the tracker on its mount.
  • Improved load capacity.
  • The hardware has been built to withstand twice the amount of torque as the MSM Rotator.
  • Where the MSM Rotator was only designed for wide-angle Astro-landscape, the NOMAD has been designed with wide-field deep-sky use in mind.
  • Availability of an optional counterweight system for more experienced users to go even deeper.
  • Simplified operation. By designing and building a device with a narrower focus we were able to make it better while keeping the size down.
  • One 3-position switch; Northern hemisphere, Southern, or Off.
  • In order to improve on our goals of ease of use and portability, the non-tracker function of the MSM Rotator has been left off, greatly simplifying the operation of the new tracker.
  • The NOMAD is focused on one function, star tracking. (NOMAD does not have timelapse mode)
  • Reduced size and weight. A foremost feature of our trackers is portability.
  • Our users take our trackers with them even when backpacking to some of the most remote areas of the world.
  • We worked to make storing and transporting the tracker even easier so you'll always want to have it with you when traveling
  • The tracker is called NOMAD for a reason; it is designed to travel with you wherever you go.
  • The Best Portable Star Tracking Solution for Everyone
  • For novices, we want it to be the best easy-to-use star tracker;
  • For experienced astrophotographers, we want it to be the most travel-friendly tracker.

Arca-Swiss mounting grooves do not fit well in Arca-Swiss mounting plate.

Light weight, portable, sturdy, very easy to set up and use. The only tiny issue I have with it is that the grooves in the supposed Arca-Swiss mount do not fit like a dovetail in the mounting bracket. It tightens, but not inside the groove. The first time I used this, I used my ioptron sky guider pro alt/az tripod mount, thought I had it tight, but it fell right off, camera and all because, as I noted after the fact, the grooves would not align. I was just tightening the alt/az mount to a very shallow portion of the mounting plate on the tracker. This needs significant reengineering so the grooves line up with the arca-swiss mount.
