With the dedicated app, you can shoot with various programmable functions like time-lapse, panoramic photography, sunset and sunrise planning, etc., In addition, with the optional accessory of Astro kit, you can turn Polaris into a professional equatorial mount, and capture stars easily with the ‘GoTo’ function, and automatically track stars for streak-free long exposures.

DCM3000,
Still missing features
It took a week for customer service to respond to a password reset request, so that wasn’t great. We are still missing 2 star alignment, which many Astro photographers believe would significantly improve the star tracking. Holy grail seems to work well so that is positive.

Unable to connect to apple macbook pro M1
All seesm well if running off iphone, but can not connect to mac book pro with M1 chip as stated in information sestion. Love the platform but it would be noce if it worked as stated for Macbook Pro M1.

Terrible
Can’t connect to a7riii with iOS 16 without turning off cellular. Once connected you can’t get the camera in live mode so you have no visual. You can’t kill the app without resetting your phone. Returned the Benro Polaris. Nice try but it is far from a usable product.

The concept and idea is great.
But the equipment fails and does not connect to the App when “Cellular data” is “on”.
When data is turned off, it connects only to the Benro device, but after connecting all cables…the app does not connect to the live view on the camera.

Updates keep Improving the functionality
The Polaris was a crowd source funded product and Benro has been busy working on getting units delivered to backers while also adding promised functionality to the app. They are also listening to users who are using it in the field and are making tweaks and improvements based on these suggestions.
While not perfect, the software / hardware combo is very usable for star tracking even with longer lenses (100-500mm range), panoramas and more.
I give the software 5 stars because it’s very functional and getting better all the time. And Benro doesn’t deserve the 2 stars they are getting from those that seem to not realize that “Kickstarter” type purchases is like purchasing beta units are we are the beta testers.
For those that have issues with firmware updates they need to do 2 important things. 1) Format the micro SD card in the Polaris right before attempting the update and 2) Make sure you have good cellular reception on your phone since your wifi is being used to connect to the Polaris. The. your firmware update will work.
Keep up the good work Benro and continue to make this product better with each update.
