Hey Alexander,

Can you please tell me how many speeds can you dial on the Mizar motor pan/ tilt head? I see that the online ad says: 2 speed drive. High (1 degree per sec. and low (0.2degrees per sec.)

Does this give you some decent slower/ faster options for head movement. I know that you have mentioned that camera frame rates will affect the quality/ look of the capture but does the head deliver a good working range?

I have become "aware" of the Meade 200 Head with the 494 controler and am wondering which one gives better.... performance?

Anyone know?
