Does that include eyepieces?

Cheers,

Jason,

I've just bought the same setup from Kendall recently, and I have to say this combination is a real joy to use.

He didn't include EPs with mine, and I knew that before buying. So far, I have just bought two pairs of (25mm & 15mm) Bintel plossls which were on special from $39 down to $25 each - so $100 the lot - to see what it was like before committing to a pair of better EPs. I certainly haven't been disapointed, even with cheap EPs.

These are terrific value at this price :thumbsup:

Cheers,

I've used these in the daytime and think they're great, but would love to hear what they're like on the heavens.
Fancy giving us a bit of a review PCH?

Cheers,
Jason.

There is a thread somewhere from SPSP that talks about these giant binoculars of Kendall's. I had the opportunity to look through them using 13 mm T6 Naglers (among other eyepieces)...amazing. Satchmo spent a fair bit of time with them and from memory had a positive opinion of them.

Jason,

My new manfrotto tripod has just arrived, so I'll be happy to do a review next clear night - could even be tonight:D

Cheers :thumbsup:
