I have an Astro Optical Samson mount, bought way back in 1987. Problem is I never got a motor drive for it. I did get the slomo controls which have limited travel.
Would you believe I actually did film astrophotography with this setup for a number of years with the RA axis being driven with a toy motor and gearbox. This setup no longer cuts the mustard with digital. Why does everything need to be 10X more accurate with digital?
Anywho, are there any dual axis drive options for this mount available these days? Or do I retire it and get something new.
I don't necessarily want "goto". I'm so old school I wouldn't know what to do with it anyway.
