I have been evaluating this with the iOptron guide and i selected this one because setting up at 50deg latitude is a breeze. The gears are very smooth. Very high quality build and easy to setup. I took a time lapse yesterday just as a test shot and it was easy. This comes with good documentation as well. I hope to enjoy this for my astrophotography adventure.
