iEQ45 or NEQ6?
Time for a new mount - these 2 mounts are competitive priced with each other so not an issue. Main focus is astrophotographic work.
So, iOptron iEQ45or Synta NEQ6? I am well versed with the Synscan of the Synta product, but I am adaptable, so learning new hand controller stuff is not an issue. What I DO want is:
1. GOOD alignment accuracy (I have found the HEQ5 wanting, so could only hope the NEQ6 is better)
2. good motor accuracy in tracking - I have read the iEQ45 capable of 5 minute unguided round stars...
3. good guiding accuracy
My lean is toward the iOptron right now, but if the NEQ6 is capable, I may consider that as well (and have some commonality with my visual HEQ5)
