I don't know if this is an isolated case but the cable connections have so much slop in them and do not feel positively connected that I'm worried the cables will fall out with the camera pointing vertically. I can't see how a consistent connection in either can be maintained they way they are.

My experience with secure connections of SX, SBIG, ATiK etc have left me reluctant to even consider buying a 10 now. If anyone's experience with the 10 or 12 is the exception to this I'd really like to hear it.
I still have my qhy10 in the wrapper but will pull it our later to see if this is true - but then as a wise man once said - velcro fixes everything
