Tak mounting plates

[beren]

Gday just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Takahashi Jura/mounting plates. Pretty hard to find info on the gear. I'm trying to gauge if the Tak gear would help in reducing the weight on my mount over a Losmandy DSBS and accommodate a TGM-2 better Cheers

If you're looking to reduce weight you may want to try pinging these guys an email. http://www.bttechnologies.com/bt_dp.htm

I can testify their dovetail plates are light and strong. They will swap the saddle on your EM200 for something lighter too. Failing that...upgrade your mount.

Thanks Jase, already use BTT gear .......I wouldnt have the mount set up like this in the pic except for occasional starhopping so no need to upgrade the mount just trying to find out how the Tak plates would compare to the DSBS
