Ultra Portable Milky Way Mount!
Capture stunning images of the Milky Way with your photography camera and this
stellar star tracker! Featuring a premium design, built-in rechargeable
battery, 7.7 pounds of camera carrying capability, all weighing in at under a
pound, this star tracking mount from Move Shoot Move brings you sky in a
powerful and portable package. If creating awe-inspiring pictures of
the Milky Way is your goal, then the Move Shoot Move Nomad is your perfect
companion!
The Move Shoot Move Nomad has been purpose-built to make creating beautiful
images of our Milky Way easy. Simply align the Nomad with your
hemisphere’s alignment star, adjust your camera to your desired framing, and
slide the switch to the Northern or Southern hemisphere setting. That’s it!
The Nomad will begin sweeping your photography camera across the sky in sync
with the stars. This movement with the night sky allows you to take longer
pictures without seeing star trails,
bringing out the stunning features of the Milky Way like never
before! Nebulous dust lanes, faint details, and thousands of stars will begin to
pop out of the inky black sky above in your photo editor with fewer pictures
— and a whole lot less effort! — than any manual Milky Way imaging
method. While this image editing ease can be matched by other star trackers,
competing with the Nomad’s size and simplicity is another story! Gone are the
counterweights, multiple modes, heft, and space requirements of other options
— the Nomad needs no counterbalance, has simple switch operation, and
weighs a featherweight 0.95 pounds in a package that can fit in the palm of
your hand. Just throw this in your photography bag to bring the wonders of the
Milky Way down to Earth wherever you go!
Easy Operation!
Just how easy is creating Milky Way photos with the Move Shoot Move Nomad?
Very! All you’ll need is a mirrorless or DSLR camera, a photography lens, a
3/8″ tripod, a way to align the Nomad, and a ball head to position your
photography camera; a second ball head or a wedge may also be required,
depending on how adjustable you tripod is. Start by leveling your tripod, and
install a ball head or wedge if needed. Attach the Nomad to your tripod, and
unthread the large red ring on the star tracker. Remove the platform, attach
your ball head with the camera and lens installed, and then reinstall the
platform by simply slotting it back into place and tightening the ring down.
Then begin the alignment process; to make this process easy, we recommend
using one of Move Shoot Move’s alignment accessories such as the
Move Shoot Move Calibrated Pointer with Nomad Adapter
which makes alignment as easy as overlaying a green laser on Polaris. Slide
the switch on the Nomad to the correct hemisphere, and you’re ready to begin
taking pictures!

Simple Star Tracker, Superb Results!
The Move Shoot Move Nomad is designed to make Milky Way photography simple,
with an easy to use interface, photography equipment connection, alignment
options, and build. With this powerful portable tool, you can create
incredible astrophotos of our galaxy’s dust lanes without all the headache or
hefty equipment!
Star Tracking Simplicity
Counteracting star trails and
capturing longer exposures with the Move Shoot Move Nomad is simple! There’s
no app, hand controller, or button interface with this star tracker, just a
slide switch to turn the Nomad on and put it in step with the sky. This has
three positions to allow you to select between the Northern or Southern
hemisphere, or to turn the device off. Just line up your Nomad, setup your
camera and lens, then slide the switch to your hemisphere to put your
pictures in sync with the Milky Way!
Perfect Pairing for Your Photography Equipment
The
Move Shoot Move can carry up to 7.7 lb. of equipment, making it perfectly
suited for your photography camera and lens! While the Nomad shines
brightest with wide angle lenses, this capacity can comfortably carry a
mirrorless or DSLR camera with a telephoto lens and a 3/8″ ball head like
the
Move Shoot Move Ball Head. Attaching this can be done easily, with the top of the movement platform
held in place with a tool-less retaining ring — simply unthread the
large red textured ring, lift the platform out of the Nomad, attach your 3/8″ photography equipment and lock it in place with the small rotation lock screw, and then replace the
platform and tighten the red ring down. This allows you to install your
photography equipment even when the Nomad is installed on a tripod! Speaking
of, mounting your Nomad to a tripod is also a simple process. With an
Arca-Swiss style foot and 3/8″ mount, you’ll be able to connect your Nomad
to most standard photography tripods on the market today. For tripods with
limited or no adjustment for aligning this star tracker, the Nomad also
pairs beautifully with the 3/8″ tripod compatible Move Shoot Move Ball Head
or
Wedge (Both Sold Separately)!
Easy Alignment Accessories Available (Sold Separately)
More forgiving
than telescopes, the wide angle lenses that pair perfectly with your Move
Shoot Move Nomad can produce star trail free images with a simple alignment;
and from point-and-shoot simple to more involved, Move Shoot Move has you
covered with an ecosystem of separate accessories! If quick and easy is what
you’re after, then look no further than the
Move Shoot Move Calibrated Pointer with Nomad Adapter, which once installed makes lining up your Nomad as easy as pointing the
green laser at Polaris and then locking everything in place. For a more
image-guided alignment, attach the
Move Shoot Move Phone Mount and Nomad Mount Adapter Kit
and use one of the excellent mobile apps to guide your start tracker in
place — even when your alignment star may not be visible! Finally for
those looking to achieve a more exacting polar alignment there is the
Move Shoot Move Polar Scope, Adapter, and Illuminator Kit. This kit gives you a Northern and Southern hemisphere compatible polar
scope, allowing you to focus your Nomad in on polar north with an etched
reticle guide!
Ultra Portable, Solidly Built
At just 3.5″ x 2.6″ x
2.2″ in dimension and 0.95 lb. in weight, the Nomad just about disappears
into a backpack or photography bag! Portable doesn’t mean poorly built here
— with the Nomad solidly made with CNC aluminum parts, premium
anodized to a stylish and durable finish. Within this robust housing is a
rechargeable lithium battery that is rated to run your Move Shoot Move Nomad
for 5 hours, comfortably covering a night of Milky Way imaging! After your
imaging session, you can easily refuel the Nomad from a USB power source
through the USB-C port; perfect for the mobile device chargers and portable
battery banks commonly in use today, and ensuring you’ll be able to prepare
for the next night of imaging wherever you are!
