    Smoother installation of the Polarie starry sky head! The Polarimeter is an "unlikely" design product that combines a level, compass, and inclinometer.
    The Polar Meter can be used to adjust the polar axis (simple installation) even when the North Star is not visible when taking starry sky photographs with the Polarie Starry Head (WT).
    It can also be attached to the accessory shoe of a camera or other equipment.
    * Cannot be attached to Sony/Konica Minolta cameras and some Minolta cameras due to different accessory shoe shape.
    Polar axis alignment is possible even when the North Star is not visible.
    An unlikely design that combines a level, compass, and inclinometer into a single unit. Attached to the accessory shoe of a camera or other equipment, the altitude azimuth can be quickly set. When used in conjunction with the Polarie starry sky head, the polar axis can be quickly aligned even in places where the North Star is not visible. (Simple installation)
    Inclination Indicator
    The inclination can be checked by reading the scale on the inclination indicator. The tilt scale can be read in 5-degree increments (within ±70°).
    Compass
    Align the azimuth indicator with the desired azimuth and read the compass scale. The compass can be read in 1-degree increments.
    It can also be read in increments of 100 mils, which is a unit of mils that divides 360° into 6,400 equal parts.
    Note: To prevent blurring, the dial is designed to move slowly. It may take some time for the azimuth to be established.
    Level
    A tilt clamp is used to adjust the bubble in the level to determine the level of the instrument.
