Apart from the fact that everyone has or will own a losmandy mount, is there any reason not to concider the atlux? It looks like a high quality japanese mount to me and capable of carrying from 22 to 34 kilos, depending on what you read with a corrected pec of +/- 3" which shoots my eq6's +/- 15" to pieces
Mate I used a G11 for a few months and it didnt impress me so much.
Not terrible or any thing but less than I thought it would be for the money the bloke paid for it.
And it looks like it was put together in the dark.
Have never used an Atlux but saw one once and it looked pretty nice but thats all I can say about it sorry mate.
