hi Rob yep handles the weight fine I use a canon 450d with no issues I just balance buy sliding the tube up or down with focusing I need a 25mm extension on my camera but that gives me god travel
yep a lazer collimator is a must makes the job much easier its a good little portable set up I just image with 20sec exposures and take heaps of subs 50 to 150 and stack them this image of M27 was taken in far north west NSW on my father inlaws sheep station it is take with the set up i mentioned it is a stack of 220 / 20sec exposures this little mount tracks quite well when set up correctly I love it
cheers Pete
