Losmandy Gemini 2 on GM8
I use a Losmandy GM8 with Digital Drives and at this time, strictly for visual observation with a 120mm EON refractor. The convenience of spending more time viewing and less time locating would suggest the next step is Go-To functionality via a Gemini 2 Retrofit. It is expensive $1600+ and where I live, one could purchase a Sky-Watcher EQ6 or Orion Atlas EQ-G and have some change left over. I do enjoy the relative portability of the GM8 and have no desire in owning 2 equatorial mounts - my wife counts equipment!!!
Does anyone have any experience and willing to offer their advice on the Gemini 2 for a GM8?
