Well... a mount MUST be heavy and strong enough, otherwise it is useless (it wobbles, vibrates, oscillates etc). Simple home-made barn door mount could be 1/10000-th the price, and it still could have the same carrying capacity (and accuracy) as this thing.

Kenko looks like the 1/2 size of EQ6... or EQ5.
EQ5 is at least 30% of the price of Kenko, or even less.
