Summary[edit]

Description
English: Type 4, double arm barn-door drives allow for better tracking than single arm drives (even in manual mode) reducing star trailing and allowing for very long exposures, even with long lenses. Trailing error is in the order of 4 arc seconds or better for 50 minute exposures, depending on adequate polar alignment (PA)
