Interested in just the 6" Newt.
What F/ratio is it?
Any idea how much shipping to Geelong Vic would be?
Thanks Rodd

The focul length is 750mm. I want to sell this as a package as its a good imaging rig but if no takers then yes. Not sure about postage cost but I will weigh and let you know.

UPDATE

Lot of interest in the 6 and 8 inch scopes by themselves. I will be waiting to sell the HEQ5 + either the 6 or 8 inch as a package first though.

Price as per last price but ONO
