Is there a really good video tutorial anywhere, for doing the polar alignment?

Get on YouTube and search for sharpcap polar align. Plenty to go at there.

Did that but didn't find anything particularly great :-)

Particularly great is a very subjective thing. This video is useful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=391BNEr5TIA and the creator did put quite a bit of effort into producing it.

Have you tried using the comprehensive instructions integrated within SharpCap?

Perhaps, once you understand the process, you will be the one to produce a particularly great video?

To be fair to dtastro I find Trevor Jones' videos to be over-produced.

Interesting though, in the last 60 seconds of video Mr. Jones says that he successfully captured several 5-minute exposures of M106. Wait a minute, he is using a CMOS camera, how is this possible? :lol:
