FeatherTouch Question

Hi All,

I'm thinking of getting a feathertouch focuser upgrade. But, just a quick question. Does the fine focus feathertouch mechanism actually result in a sharper image of the object compared to a standard focuser, or does it just make it earier to achieve a fine critical focus (ie. high power) on the object?

Thanks,

Rbo

Thanks Bill! That answers my question. I appreciate the feedback.

Clear skies,

I second Bill's assement. Also, check my review of the FT focuser right here in the articles section of Astromart.
