These mounts are basically the same you have one manufacturer then you
have a dozen outlets with there own logo how can they all not be the same? My
suggestion spend a little money and get a decent mount. The Losmandy G11 ought
to do what you want.

Hi all,

0.5arcsec, which is huge. Both your eye and cameras integrate this 0.5arcsec
jiggle , hence the vibration problem .


Um, integration is an averaging process. If your eyeball does
"integrate" this noise it should be less noticable. Differentiation
tends to increase the relative noise level in a signal.

Jack

The only differences I know of are the different logo and the illuminated
polar scope reticle.


There is the much more appealing blue decarative band.
