If you intend imaging in the future, good autofocus (way more accurrate and faster than manually BTW) with focusmax is a welcome zero, invisible effort relief that makes good imaging slightly more achievable on a given night
Have to agree. My moonlite has the stepper motor/moonlite controller option and setting up the temp compensation is a little challenging to say the least. Focus max in conjunction with Maxim works well on the autofocus routines but of late I just use the Bahtinov mask which is a real doodle (takes 2 seconds but you have to be there).
