My Skywatcher SW 80 was stunning value for money, as I have said in another thread. $199 from the now defunct B.T.O.W. Slight yellow one side of focus on the moon, and slight violet the other side, and virtually
no colour if the focus is spot on. The focuser is poor, but a little tension on the focuser lock screw takes care of the slop. The tripod is solid, and has slow motions, and a moveable scope mounting block.
