I forgot to add, - check your focuser. If it is like David's with slop in the clamping mechanism of the focuser then get the moonlight. Mine was ok but I still did the transplant. Love the focuser and it makes the scope so easy to use - a well spent $450. The two together are a real winner.

What would be the best mount for this scope? The EQ5 that North group sells is not the HEQ5, right? I'm a little confused about these mounts. Are they made by Skywatcher, or HiOptic? Anyone know?

Skywatcher has an EQ5, EQ6, EQ5 Pro Syntek and EQ6 Pro Syntek. There is a new one, an NEQ6.

Is there another vendor in China that sells these mounts?
