ZWO CAA Review - The Long-Awaited Rotator has Finally Arrived!

After many years of development ZWO has finally announced their Rotator, also known as the Camera Angle Adjuster. This rotator will move your camera sensor to any orientation you want and allow for precise alignments each night. This is especially helpful if you photograph multiple targets throughout the night with different compositions. Plus, the CAA will automatically rotate your guiding calibration data, which is critical if you're using one of the Duo cameras. Based on my experience with the rotator, I think it's a solid addition to most astro setups. It works well, there are very few (if any) glitches with it, and the build quality seems quite good. The only downside is that it's about the same size and weight as their filter wheels. I was hoping for something a bit smaller. The CAA will release on December 26th. The price is still TBD, but based on other rotators on the market, this could cost upwards of $600. I based my initial price guess on the costs of their filter wheels, which are generally $300 - $400. 00:00 - Intro 00:19 - Unboxing 01:34 - Size Comparison 02:01 - Attach Camera to CAA 02:53 - Attach CAA to telescope 03:48 - Initial Setup 05:46 - Confirm Backfocus & Focus Telescope 07:31 - Testing the CAA in the ASIAir 10:56 - CAA & Plan 12:08 - Guiding Calibration Test 13:30 - Rotator Review
