EQ6 or ioptron45?
I have a SW EQ6 Pro and swear by it. It can do up to 15 mins. unguided exp for lenses up to 300mm. I once had a 35kg payload on this unit and again, it worked as expected.
With a pending EQ8 and this iOptron mount and the now SW EQ-Az6 mounts, it will be the price and their performance that will govern sales here in Oz.
Like semi-pro and pro digital cameras, I would wait a while to see how these mounts stack up as more sales will be generated in the US than here.
Astronomical equipment to me, are just working tools and to complete the job proper, you use the what is practical for that job in hand.
