I am thinking on getting an advanced series mount for astrophotography using a televue 85 and a dslr. I plan on limiting my exposure times to 10 minutes or less. I have a CGE mount which I like very much, but I find too heavy for casual use. I am interested in people's opinions who have used this mount for astrophotography. Thanks much.

Has anyone had any experience comparing the Orion Sirius Mount with the Meade LXD75 and Celestron ASGT goto mounts? I am on the lookout for a medium weight astrophoto and visual setup using one of these mounts. The heaviest I would use would be a CR6 refractor with a Televue 85 for guiding with web cam and a dslr for imaging? Thanks.
