In adding 4kg of weight to the DSLR I had attached, it was more tricky to get the rice to stay in place. However, during the actual use the ZWO CAA was able to rotate quickly, quietly and smoothly even with the additional weight hanging on to it. It barely noticed the additional weight.
If you’re like me, then you’ve been a bit keen on the release of the new ZWO Camera Angle Adjuster (CAA). So I was very happy when mine came through the post. Though that happiness very quickly became confusion as attaching the ZWO CAA to a Sky-Watcher Evostar Telescope proved a little fiddly. In this article, I’m going to show you how I went about attaching these ready for a clear night.
“The issue previously would be that those targets would all want a different rotation on the camera. Unless you didn’t mind totally cropping parts of the galaxy or nebula out by just having the wrong framing. The ZWO CAA aims to change that now by including rotation in the planning stage.”
