I seem to do all my observing with SCT's and Maks these days and haven't really used this scope for a while so I'm thinking of selling.
It's an 80mm f/7 ED doublet (560mm focal length). Condition is excellent.
Features & included items:
- Excellent dual-speed 2.5" R&P focuser with 2" step-down adapter
- Dovetail bracket for finderscope
- Retractable dew shield
- Clamshell with Vixen-style rail. The clamshell allows the tube to slide forwards or backwards easily to balance the scope (e.g. if changing eyepieces)
- Objective cap
- High quality padded case with space for accessories & eyepieces. I particularly like the fact that the scope can be stored with the diagonal attached
Note: Diagonal*, eyepiece & finder shown in photos are not included.
Asking $500.
* GSO 2" Dielectric diagonal and standard 2"-1.25" adapter available for $90 with the scope.
Pickup preferred in Sydney (Ryde) as I no longer have the boxes but
will consider requests to ship.
Enquiries by PM please.
