Uppzzz for a good mount. This is one of the best medium capacity mount in the market, price notwithstanding. Review of the mount for CCD imaging from the author of "The New CCD Astronomy" and "The NewAstro Zone System for Astro Imaging": http://www.wodaski.com/wodaski/review_GP_DX.htm . He compared it with AP600GTO.

If you want higher capacity, the Vixen Atlux (same load capacity and same precision as Tak NJP but at much lesser price), is also a very good choice. I'm looking for one.

Same load capicity and same precision as NJP! This is amazing.

The production of New Atlux is suspended in Japan because SS2K is no longer produced. It is a good choice to fill the gap between EM200 and NJP.
