Since this mount is now gaining popularity, I'd like to know are are you happy or not happy with it and why and if you could tell Synta engineers what should have been added, removed or improved on, what would it be and why?
The reason I'm asking this is that Synta want to improve the next gen of EQ8's so feedback is important.
I have an EQ8 and while it has ~2 Secs. of b/lash in Dec the only two 'gripes' I have is where the locking handles are placed - so close to the Dec housing and both the Dec and RA housing are on both sides of the mount. One of them could have been on the opposite side which would help in balancing and those handles should have been large knobs.
Anyway, let's see what YOU think could have been improved on and why?
cheers,
James
