    I’ve owned and used all those mentioned on different scopes and like the sesto senso 2 the best, then the focuscube then the eaf last. Sesto is easy to install and use, very accurate reproducible focus curves, no bracket making for a more “elegant” design, unclutches for manual focus when not powered - it’s just a great focuser. Focuscube is also great and super accurate, but I don’t like the bracket, not just because it makes it look less nice, but it can be awkward to mount on certain scopes i.e. 130pds. Eaf is ok, I owned and used two of these on scopes and lenses, they’re ok, not a big fan, wouldn’t really buy it again. hope this helps!

    @AstroFin Nice image! If you dither your every frame and then drizzle, you can halve your image scale and “go deeper” as you say without using a ZWO. I wouldn’t necessarily say going deeper has as much to do with image scale, as it does with integration time. In my case, just under 31 hours to get that deep signal. There’s also blinking out the bad frames and many post-processing skills involved to bring out that signal effectively. Having said that, yes, a cooled, lower noise sensor does help a lot! CS Minos

    you mean the bracket that comes with the Pegasus Focuscube?

    Cool the only two things to consider, is that you need to preset you aperture (I have mine at f4 for example) before you clamp on the ring. Also, the locking screw wont close the ring fully down, but has nevertheless been rock solid since the day I installed it without loosening up. HTH Minos
