I just got this gso 6" newtonian and i probably will change the focuser in the future, seems good only for visual or just a dslr, idk if its suitable for a dedicated astrocam etc and cant mount a eaf to it.
I was thinking of the baader diamond steeltrack nt but im not sure if it fits well to the gso newt without drilling any holes. If anybody knows any good focuser compatible with eaf (or aaf) that can support an imaging train without flexing would be nice to get in the future. Thanks and merry christmas to everyone!

I'm not 100% sure but I think the baader focuser's holes are in the same spot as yours

thats good to know thanks

#

cause well i think the stock focuser is decent for a dslr only

#

but if I want to get an astro cam etc I probably need a better focuser

#

the baader one is the only one i found that would be great, even the price is not very expensive (345€) and they sell it in eu stores too

it will work with an astrocam but it's a good idea to replace it, the basic gso focuser are bad
