Turbocharging the Losmandy G11: 3.5 arc seconds peak to peak
By Greg Nowell 6/24/2008
Ovision's new aftermarket worm makes almost any new or used G11 competitive with mounts at 3x the price in most imaging applications. The flexibility in configurations (servo go-to, stepper systems, manual or digital setting circles), snazzy aftermarket options such as the Berlebach tripod, and a large user base keep this model suprisingly flexible. The Ovision aftermarket worm may vault this well-known mount into a top-contender in its weight class for high performance imaging applications.

The Takahashi Teegul Alt-azimuth Mount is also a RA/Dec mount!
By Jim Buchanan 6/16/2007
The precision and build of the Teegul mount are typical Takahashi, yet we astronomers have still found a way to make it better. I have come up with one more way to increase its usefulness.

Venus Optics Imager Tripod
By Richard Hennig 7/4/2006
Focusing a DSLR or a webcam is a challenge and required a lot of patience when you use the aluminum tripod that comes with many mounts. When a friend of mine, Alex Choy, told me that he started designing and manufacturing a replacement tripod for the GP mount and its clones, I jumped at the opportunity and asked him to send me one to replace my aluminum tripod and to test it for astrophotography.

By Morris Bagnall 4/23/2006

TeleVue Panoramic Mount
By Eric Gage 3/23/2006
