For sale: used Takahashi FS-60C, tube mounting ring, Borg reducer plus Borg and Nikon adapters.
$600.00 - buyer to pay shipping and I'll pay insurance.
Manufacture number: 06135 (135th make in 2006 I believe).
Reasonable condition considering year of manufacture, usual wear, and reflected in price. Glass looks good. A lovely guide or wide field scope for some of those bigger instruments out there, or a lovely grab and go wide field setup.
To reach focus with the Borg reducer, you will need the CAA or a similar adapter providing the same back distance to reach focus.
I was able to use a 2" diagonal and focus with certain eyepieces using the 7508 adapter, otherwise use straight through view in traditional Japanese style.
For lots of details on the reducer and adapters see this thread: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=76904
Enquire via PM only thanks.
