Of particular note is the new William Optics eyepiece focuser

WIFD Focuser Design

The internal focusing system incorporates the patented WO center focuser with precise internal shifting of the fixed optics to prevent image shift. The integrated viewing window on the focuser allows instant inspection of the numerical scale display for focus position. Smooth rack and pinion design is integrated into the focuser to provide very fine adjustability for critical focus. The internal movement of the optical elements is protected from the elements and cannot get out of alignment. Redistribution of weight provides better balance during shooting.
