Views have that ' wow ' factor every time I look through it.
I have other Scopes on hand ....but this NA140 is something else....and it's not a heavy Scope.... coming in at 6kg's

5.5 inches of Japanese optical goodness...

I'm hooked..

Now that is a MINT grab n go setup! If you ever sell I've got dibs!

My current scopes:

12" F/4.4 SDM dob ...eats galaxies for breakfast
8" F/6 dob ..............eats planets for breakfast
4.5" Meade Newt. Aside from the plastic focuser this little guy is a great grab n go performer with my M1 mount. It's also my first proper scope which my parents got me as a Christmas Gift way back in 2000.

I want to own a 4" class Vixen refractor with an alt-az mount for the ultimate all-round grab n go fun
