a 5" newt on something like az/4 if they will collimate

if not a refractor on photo trpod, a spotting scope may fit the bill - i often take a 70mm spotting scope (once sold at andrews for $99 [& aust Geographic for 300] camping -it fits the bill nicely, i am often surprised how people are impressed with th views it gives on the moon. recently i even showed some ladies saturn thru it in SA, they were mor ethan happy to be able to make out the rings
--there is a 80mm mak in icetrade, they are veryvlight & fit on moderately priced photo tripods
