I’d like to ask about the astrotracker: how does it perform? With guiding or without? How many seconds does it hold at long focal lengths?

The tracker is good; with polar alignment using the finder scope, it can guide for an average of 1.5 minutes on a Canon crop sensor with a 135mm lens. With guiding, I captured 5-minute exposures using a 178 camera and an 85mm lens (6 arcseconds per pixel).
