Dovetail clamp to fit Takahashi EM-200B

[rcheshire]

Might need some advice with this one.

Looking at photos of the EM 200B, there appear to be two holes in the top of the dec axis, which I presume are there to fix clamps and plates of various types.
Is it possible to fit a Bintel dovetail clamp, for instance, or do I need a dedicated Takahashi part. I will be mounting an 80mm refractor with a Vixen style dovetail mounting bracket.

I have a Cassidy on mine (not the "B" model though, a later one), but ADM also make the item you are after. Google ADM.

Thanks Gary!

Edit: I've had a look over at ADM. There is the Losmandy D series and the Vixen V series. I'm guessing the Losmandy is more stable, especially for AP.

Rowland,
yes, the D series Losmandy seems to be the default one these days. As an aside ADM make a dual saddle, and if you have both rails that is what I would get.
Anthony is excellent to deal with as well, very good.

Thanks Gary. I'm assuming M8 threads.

Dunno to be honest, but yes seems about right. Anthony supplies them IIRC anyway. You can always ask him, he will know.
