EM200 Model Differences

Posted By Rixon Reed

What are the differences in the various EM200 models since this mount was released? I see there is an EM200 USD and an EM200 USD III

Pentax 6x7

Posted By Rixon Reed

Greetings! How would one mount a Pentax 6x7 on the back of an Orion 80mm ED refractor or a Televue NP101? I don't believe there is a T series adapter for this camera.

I realize that the refractor may not cover the entire film, but that's ok. I actually prefer the image circle it produces. I'm not sure if either will achieve focus.

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

Inexpensive Autoguider?

Posted By Rixon Reed

I have an Orion 80ED with a short tube Orion 80mm mounted on top of it. My mount is a Tak EM-10. Which autoguider should I consider for this setup that doesn't cost a fortune but will do the job. Thanks in advance.
