If you want a camera control program like Maxim to focus for you and refocus during the imaging run, then the robofocus might be the way to go. Otherwise, the SWEL works well.
This is exactly what I'm working towards once I get a grip for things. Maybe for now I might just try something like the SW to simplify things. What I would really like to know is whether these focusers help achieve better focus for astrophotography. I don't mind using the digits for visual observing.
