I did not take to imaging so would like to sell this for what I paid a few months ago.
- 152mm Carbon Fibre David H. Levy Comet Hunter Maksutov-Newtonian OTA
- Dew Shield
- Lens cap
- Focusing tube extender (can be removed for Astrophotography backfocus)
- 2" to 1.25" adapter and 1.25" insert cap
This OTA is designed for both visual and astro and is well regarded for the price eg.

EMD coated optics, 10:1 2” focuser with focus lock and tension adjustment knobs. The stock collimation knobs are similar to Bobs Knobs.
Does not include any eyepieces or finder scopes. One of the two guidescope mounts is missing a screw - not much of an issue unless you plan to attach two guidescopes or finderscopes at the same time. The dovetail shows marks where the clamp screws have dug into it - all from normal use and to be expected. There are a couple of small scuffs on the outer tube, photos attached (the camera flash makes them stand out more than they really appear)
Asking $650, also have a Pelican 1650 that I got with it which I am selling for $200
Would prefer local pickup
