Looked at a bunch, including the Atlux and EM200, but the G11 came out on top for my needs. The availability of the Ovision replacement worm did it for me - I know of three installations of this unit and each mounts has a measured PE of less than 5, and typically 3 arc seconds peak to peak. That's top-end performance for reasonable money - about the same as the Atlux but without the inappropriate price tag. I much prefer the clutch system on this mount to the others too - but that's just personal preference. Tripod is second to none in stiffness in this size range.
