I also had a heavy ST8XME camera and autofocuser, a DSLR would be much lighter. The light guidescope also had much less flexure. You can see pics of this rig, and astro pics from it on my site.

Thanks Fred
The little Tak actually weigh 1.3kg, so lighter still.
I'll certainly have a look at your site. Good to know it's kind-of OK. Last thing I want to do is to have to go a Titan.
