Just realized I wasted $60 on a star tracker that didn't work with my lens
I bought a cheap star tracker off Facebook Marketplace for astrophotography last month. Turns out the payload limit was way too low for my DSLR and telephoto lens combo, so every 30-second exposure came out blurry. Anyone else get burned by underestimating gear specs before checking the math?

$60 for a star tracker? That's insane cheap.

$60 gets you plastic gears that wobble at 200mm, @robert_roberts.
