Star Book S

The very compact and comprehensive Star Book S, which is already used in the Skypod mount, is highly appreciated for its straightforward operating structure. Its graphical user interface is familiar from the Star Book of the Sphinx mount. Vixen now offers all GP owners, or those who want to become one, the Star Book Type S as a GoTo unit. We are thus realizing a dream of many users.
