Hi Shan
Mate, I have a SW10" f/5, which I purchased as my first scope two years ago. I have it on an SW AZEQ6 and put it in AZ mode and tracks real nice. The mount suits a reflector as I dont have to get into weird positions in AZ. EQ mode will get that focuser up a tad high etc.
I do astro with this mount but use a refractor.

As a newbie I wish I purchased the Quattro as it has a stronger focusor and shorter in length which can be used for astro where as the reflector I have the focusor cannot handle the weight of a decent camera and filter wheel etc.
Something to think about if you decide to use the reflector with a camera.


I will use the reflector for astro but a decent focusor is quite pricey.
