1.35 kg. I don't think it's the moonlite focuser as much as the extension tubes between focuser and camera. The basic problem is the OTA of the WO ZS110, which is too short. However I have taken steps to resolve the problem. Moonlite sell an extension flange which will effectively increase the OTA length. I'm also upgrading to threaded parts to connect the camera to the focuser.
