007 Plus Fitness Tracker Set Time

Although the most expensive of the fitness tracker watches, it worth it for serious trackers. Highly recommend.

I use this product for pinups and fitness shots at this time. With the results I'm getting I will be using for other types of shoots.

I have the old PW Plus set and it works like a charm with it.

Setting it up was a bit of a challenge, the head set firs a bit wonky, have a fitness face thingee coming so excited for that, hope it helps

Does the job. Gets notifications and tells the time. Don't use the fitness tracking so can't comment on that. Battery life is kind of disappointing. But still lasts about 10 days

I'm just beginning to get into astrophotography. I was hesitant to put down $450 (including tax) for my first tracker, but the urge to get into deep sky photography was just too great. I am not disappointed. This is a great tracker. I've had the chance to use it a couple of times and I'm very impressed with it's performance. It's fairly simple to set up and align, and it tracks very well. Admittedly the first time setting it up took me a while simply because it was all new. I did have some difficulty finding Polaris through the polar scope. It helps to align it before it gets too dark since it can be difficult to differentiate Polaris from other stars once the skies are completely dark. Once it's set up and aligned (I use the Polar Aligner Pro app for Android to find the exact spot to line up Polaris in the scope) I can easily track stars for 5 minutes without any distortion at 16mm, and 3 minutes at 200mm focal length, without a guiding. I'm very pleased with the performance and look forward to getting a lot of use out of it.

I have a MSM ster tracker (this will apply to other brands). You need a wedge that allows tracker to be set to exact latitude (these come with most), they mount to 3/8 tripod screw. You need to rotate this to exact north on a perfectly level tripod. Pick the tripod up to get it in position, and you loose level. Ball heads swivel, wedges don't. This is NECESSARY! If you understand need, and have a tracker, BUY THIS! Qualityy is excellent, even at below 0 DEG. F.

Great tracker for medium set up. Polar alignment is very simple and tracker is very accurate without a rracking scope.

I have been using this tracker over the last 2 years since its initial launch. After two years of photographing exclusively with this unit at night and working with 100+ units in different astrophotography workshops, I think I have enough experience to give an honest review. It's a genius idea packed with a ton of features, but the learning curve on this tracker is hard. Many things are not straightforward, and it's normal to feel overwhelmed and frustrated at first. On top of that, Benro doesn't offer a comprehensive manual, which creates even more confusion and makes you feel desperate as you don't know what can be wrong. However, if you put the time and practice, what you can do with this tracker is simply magical. I have been automating tracked panoramas for 2+ hours while I was sleeping on my tent while camping, or while capturing the reflection of the Milky Way, which would be impossible otherwise. At this moment, it's my main star-tracker, and I wouldn't change it for any other. I love it so much that I created a dedicated tutorial just to explain how it works: https://academy.capturetheatlas.com/benro-polaris-masterclass-en/ Don't read the discouraging reviews. If you don't mind putting some extra time into practicing and learning how it works, it'll be completely worth it. You can see attached some images captured with the Benro Polaris over the last two years.

I have been using the Star Adventurer tripod, with my Star Adventurer tracker. But when it came time to do my polar alignment: turning the latitude base, towards Polaris, the latch (on their tripod) made it difficult to do that. I struggled with it. But with this tripod, the knob makes it so much easier to turn the whole base towards Polaris. It's big enough to grasp and turn the tracker towards Polaris and lock it in. This made it a time saver for me out in the field.
