Well, 16" dobs look all the same the difference being that this is the Guan Sheng scope in the flesh. Now all we have to wait for is the Truss version.

About time!

Looking around the site, the new AZT mount looks interesting, something like a porta mount knockoff :whistle:

i reckon they are still holding their cards close to their chest!

Saw a picture of the 16" on the wall of Andrews....
Not sure I like the "Straight" Truss type design........the lightbridge is much better with the geometry built into the truss work......looks better as well that way.

I'd be happy just to be able to fit one of these into my car, alas I doubt that will happen :)

Dave,

I think you right it is the same picture, notice the blemish just to the
upper left of the EP tray, it's the same in both pictures. Click on the
16" pic to enlarge.

Yep, your right Rob, I stuck both images into PaintShop Pro and it is the same image. But that's OK, because if they are identical (except for size), why bother taking seperate pics. They'd look the same anyway.

Sure would be a BIG tube to fit in the car!!!! I thought my 12" was big enough :lol:
