I want to buy a small smart telescope. I’m torn between the Dwarf 3 and the Seestar 30s Pro. The price difference between them isn’t a deciding factor for me.

The Dwarf 3 has slightly better aperture (f/3.5 vs f/3.0), however it has smaller pixels (IMX678).
The Seestar has a better sensor (IMX585) but a worse f-ratio.

The Seestar has a larger field of view, but wouldn’t that make the resolution per pixel worse than with the Dwarf?
(Sure, with the Dwarf you need to shoot Andromeda in mosaic mode, but everything else fits into the Dwarf’s field of view.)

In some reviews I read that the Dwarf allows more manual settings, but it’s not entirely clear to me what that means. In the end, it seems like everyone does stacking in some external software anyway.

So, please: which one would you choose and why? (The goal is, of course, the best possible results—the best possible photos—even with the assumption that I’ll stack them manually in external software.)

I’m looking to purchase a new telephone and after doing some light research I found these three options that I can easily travel with but I’m unsure which would be best for where I live/best quality overall

I live in the desert far out from the city and other people so light pollution is relatively low. If you have any knowledge on these three and could help me out that would be great! Or if you have any recommendations for other telescopes I’m open to hearing them! Thanks

Although I have a plan to buy the Seestar S30 Pro when it was released, DwarfLab 3 suddenly came to my mind,

and I don't know which option is better.

Dwarf 3 Or Seestar s30 pro ?

So which option do you recommend I choose?

I talking as someone who wants to buy a smart telescope.

Ein stiller Mitleser hier, der einfach in die Astrofotografie einsteigen möchte. Ich habe Erfahrung mit Bildstapelung in anderen Bereichen, also möchte ich Bilder erstellen, die ich mit anderer Software stapeln kann. Ich möchte das Ganze im Eq-Modus einrichten und verwenden, um die Sub-Belichtungen zu pushen. Ich habe bereits ein gutes Fotostativ. In einem Bortle-7-8-Gebiet. Das 30-mm-Feld ist für den Anfang genau richtig für mich. Ich könnte das Weitfeld für Milchstraßenaufnahmen verwenden, bin mir aber nicht sicher, was den Star-Track-Modus des S30 pro angeht.

Gedanken zu Dwarf 3 vs. S30 pro? Viele Vergleiche mit dem S50, aber jetzt sind die Brennweiten im Grunde gleich. Macht die etwas größere Blende des Dwarf einen Unterschied? Gibt es einen signifikanten Unterschied bei den Sensoren? Klingt so, als wäre die Software für den Seestar vielleicht "hübscher", aber beide sind funktional.

Vielleicht müssen mehr Leute das S30 pro in die Finger bekommen, damit sie vergleichen können. Man kann wahrscheinlich mit beidem als Einstieg nichts falsch machen.

I’m looking to buy a smart telescope and I’ve narrowed it down to the Seestar S30 and the DWARF 3. I’ve watched a lot of comparison videos, but they were pretty inconclusive. If anyone has used both, I’d appreciate your opinion.

Also, both advertise daytime photography, but the DWARF seems more focused on it. Does the Seestar compare?

And can either of them take Milky Way images?
