Tak mounting plates

[beren]

Gday just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Takahashi Jura/mounting plates. Pretty hard to find info on the gear. I'm trying to gauge if the Tak gear would help in reducing the weight on my mount over a Losmandy DSBS and accommodate a TGM-2 better Cheers :)

If you're looking to reduce weight you may want to try pinging these guys an email. http://www.bttechnologies.com/bt_dp.htm

I can testify their dovetail plates are light and strong. They will swap the saddle on your EM200 for something lighter too. Failing that...upgrade your mount.;)

Thanks Jase, already use BTT gear .......I wouldnt have the mount set up like this in the pic except for occasional starhopping so no need to upgrade the mount :D just trying to find out how the Tak plates would compare to the DSBS
