I love mine, except the focuser is crap. Even the advanced focuser. It can hold a DSLR, just...
I'm waiting on a digital Feathertouch system as a replacement.

As I mentioned in a previous post in this thread.
My focuser as been modified by a gent in Rockhampton. He rebuilt the focuser with new teflon pads,realigned and the focuser is now much more positive in feel and the focuser lock now locks
and he drilled the focuser to include 2 other screws to hold the DSLR, so its held in 3 places rather than 1, much more secure. Although I still leave the DSLR strap around the focuser just in case (it did fall out once but fortunately all good).
I will be buying a new MoonLight Focuser when funds permit later this year. This will make a good scope into a great scope
I am happy that I couldnt get hold of Gilman as I was going to purchase North Groups new improved focuser but if I remember right some people couldnt get focus as supplied (?).
