Sorry guys , it's going to rain soon . :cloudy:
My Celestron 80mm ED is in Oz and on it's way and I should get it by Thursday or Friday .:astron::cool:
So expect rain for those in SE Qld . Sorry :whistle :D
I will be able to complete my reviews on the eyepieces and do one on the Celestron scope when it stops raining:D

Looks great Mark, can't wait to read your first light report!

What mount is it going on? Your EQ6?

Hey Mark
That is an awsome looking scope:P

Cant wait to see it first hand.

And please no rain maybe you can send the rain back for a refund:prey:

Yes I will be using the EQ6 .
It's a bit of over kill , but as the mount won't have much to do when the new newtonian mount is finished I might as well put it to good use .
I will most probable mount my digital camera and the guide scope on it as well so it won't look to small on the EQ6:P
Actually it is going to be grab and go scope and I will be piggy backing it on the newt and it's new mount .
The Eq6 is not that heavy as a grab and go when you take all the counter weghts off it .
