Cool Orion ED80, in the mail

I decided to order the Orion ED80 yesterday, and hope for it's quick arrival at my place.

Along with the scope i also purchased, the rings to suit, the Orion 13" dovetail bar, as the EQ6 has only got the 8" supplied, an Orion shorty+ barlow, Orion mirror diagonal, Televue 8mm & 20mm ep, and a camera adapter and t- ring for the Canon.

Now all i need is the new EQ6 to arrive, a lappy and some guiding software, some clear skies, and about 2 years to work out how to use the mount and software

I reckon i will be pretty happy with it also.

After seeing some of the images and the standard that's possible with this scope, it gives me some hope of getting somewhere near decent images.

[yes tv plossls, Bintels]

Nice scope, I have been more than impressed with mine. Images snap into focus and the colour is also very good. I am sure that you will love this great scope.
