How do you rate the focuser?
The focuser is a wee ripper. It arrived with none of the holding screws tightened though, but a few turns with an allen key and it holds very firm.
It takes a fare pull on the focuser to get it to budge. I'd have no qualms about loading a couple of kilo of camera gear onto it. I found no slop at all when I slotted in a 4x Powermate, extension tube and dslr.
It also has 3 locking screws to hold your camera in place which is pretty good I think.
I had first light tonight and will be posting the images once I'm done with the processing.
