Must have for you SV550
Given that the weight of the SV550 is 5kg (11 lbs), I can't imagine trying to mount the OTA repeatedly without the add of this handle. And of course bonus is you can mount your guidescope to the handle, if you so choose. It was a no-brainer to me. At 135mm long, I found I had to reposition the front OTA ring and this resulted in the dew shield not being able to retract all the way (with caps in place the dew shield retracted, the OTA is now approx. 353mm). All in all what I would consider an essential upgrade to your SV550.
Useful, but not for the 70ED
I was excited to try this in my sv503 70mm ED but quickly discovered that mounting it produces other issues.
In order to mount it, one would need to permanently keep the dew shield fully extended and modify the dovetail mount. Keeping a good balance with my DSLR connected means that the current stock dovetail would be shifted too far forward and would throw it off balance. I would need to upgrade the dovetail to a much longer one to make it work.
