Just to add more about this scopes optical performance .

I had a prism diagonal arrive today so tried it out using a 4mm eyepiece with a 2x apro barlow giving 300 mag to view a distant bird , could see fine detail in it's feathers & eyes .

Still clouded out tonight ~ bugger .

Guess it's time to throw in some bait :D

So this 9mm wide angle long eye relief eyepiece is now included with the scope .

Took this photo though this scope by just holding my camera close to the eyepiece , those big horizontal wire's in front are just out of focus .

I used a 4mm eyepiece & 2X barlow to push up the mag 300 to take this image , better then the theoretical 3x1mm that would give 240mag max .
