I'm weighing up whether I should get the Servocat added to my SDM or not. The following are my brief list of pro's and con's:
Advantages:
- Tracking!!! Useful mainly for tracking planets at high magnifications and for public viewing.
- Save time hunting for object and spend more time observing
- Basic DSO astrophotography (I understand been a dob it'll suffer from field rotation). Maybe with focal reducer (f ratio is f4.75) can get it to down to something more manageable? Lunar/Planetary photography should be a breeze.
Disadvantages:
- Price
- Extra power needed.
Have I missed anything? If anyone with experience can shed some light on the servocat it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
