The Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer 2i Wi-Fi Photo-Set is the ideal astronomical tracking platform for astrophotographers and nightscape photographers looking for maximum portability without sacrificing high
precision.

Simple control of tracking modes and photo profiles via dedicated mobile app.
Multiple Tracking Speeds:
Automatic tracking at Sidereal, Solar and Lunar speed (compatible with the Northern and Southern hemisphere).
Time-Lapse Modes:
Built-in preset profiles for time-lapse photography on the go (e.g. 12h, 4h and 2h per rotation).
Quick Polar Alignment:
Includes built-in illuminated polar finder for fast and extremely accurate station focusing.
Load Capacity up to 5 kg:
Easily supports DSLR/Mirrorless cameras with large telephoto lenses or small refracting telescopes.
Camera Shutter Control:
Built-in SNAP interface for automatic shutter release of the camera via the app.
Complete Photographic Set (Photo-Set):

Who is it for?
Nightscape Photographers (Nightscapes and Milky Way): Ideal for those who want to go beyond low-exposure static photography and want to photograph the Milky Way with impressive details, vibrant colors and without the "drag" of stars (star trails), even using longer exposure times.
Beginner and Intermediate Astrophotographers: Perfect for those who are new to astrophotography and want to take their first steps in the Deep Sky (photographing large nebulae, nearby galaxies like Andromeda light or clusters), without the mechanical complexity or cost of a heavy 2-axis equatorial mount.
Itinerant and Traveling Astrophotographers: For those who need extremely light, compact and portable equipment, easy to carry in your backpack on a hike to the mountain, on a plane trip or to places with dark skies away from light contamination.
Content Creators and Time-Lapse Photographers: Great for those who want to produce creative night or day time-lapse videos by taking advantage of programmable auto-rotation modes via smartphone.
Traditional Photographers (DSLR / Mirrorless): Tailor-made for those who already have photographic equipment (camera body and telephoto lenses or wide-angle lenses) and are looking for a robust accessory to transform their current camera into a capable astrophoto system.
Solitary Astronomical Event Enthusiasts: Great choice for observation and practical photography of events such as solar eclipses, lunar eclipses or the passage of comets, thanks to the tracking modes dedicated to the Moon and the Sun.
