Hi Tony

The mount is a Takahashi EM200 Temma2 that I acquired a couple of months ago. Mechanically it seems an excellent mount although it is a bit backwards in terms of software functionality compared to my Vixen Skysensor 2000.

Experimenting last night, I could get 30 secs unguided exposures at a focal length of 2350mm after using the polar alignment ‘scope.

It is a mount that generally, you can just plonk down and use without having to tweak it or interact with it too much.

Cheers

Dennis
