Saw this on another forum: link to 10Mb Skywatcher catalogue.

http://www.espacioprofundo.com.ar/soft/0729.pdf

Page 26 onward shows a 5 element 100mm refractor, a 120mm ED triplet and 150mm ED triplet (to which doublet field flatteners can be added). Not something I'll be buying but I'm sure ther'll be some excited imagers around here :).

Strewth,

They are busy little vegemites.

I have an older gold tube ED102, I think I just caught an upgrade virus.

Cheers

Even in this catalogue the EQ7 is still only a drawing - at least the refractors are photos.

I see they have a 12" f/4 reflector in there too.

At least it's a pretty catalogue to look at on a cloudy night.
