After that, I selected 'enhanced vision' mode, which stacks four second exposures on top of each other to build a stronger and more detailed image, something that makes details in galaxies stand out.It's definitely a model aimed at those who have very little experience with astronomy and astrophotography, as it not only finds your target, but it focuses on it, too. This is especially useful if you are not confident focusing on stars with a Bahtinov mask and getting them as sharp as possible.I have hands-on experience with the Pro version, which has a built-in eyepiece with a digital display, but the rendered image is the same as what you can see on your smart device. In all honesty, if you aren't bothered about having a "traditional telescope experience," skip the Pro model and grab the regular Odyssey for $2,209 to save an extra $1,000.
