SCT focusers are attrocious!
I can't believe companies can sell telescopes with focusers as bad as the mirror shift system on SCT's. They are amazingly bad, totally inadequate for the job.
Having recently aquired my first SCT (Meade 10") I just find focusing a really bad experience, so I need a fix.
I know you can add a normal focuser to the back thread of the OTA, but what happens inside?
Do you take off the standard SCT focusing knob? Is there anything you add inside to hold the mirror firmly in one spot, or will it just flop about and require me to refocus all the time?
Does anyone have any recommendations as to new focusing on the SCT?
Cheers,
Jason.
