So anyway, who's using a Stellarvue scope?
Having ordered and paid for a WO star71 back in nov/Dec last year, and expecting delivery in 10 days- the WO factory now claim that they didn't recieve my order, sold out of all Star 71's and now it's discontinued!
Was advised that there's a new design, replacement four element model arriving in March, (maybe). But I'm done waiting after three months of lost imaging time and poor communication. Refund requested... Moving on...
I'm now looking at the new Stellarvue SV70T, f4.8 336mm fl with the .8 reducer/flattener, 2speed r&p focuser, landed here after gst etc it's around A$2k which pretty much maxes out my budget.
I shoot narrowband nebulas and am looking for a nice wide fov for my 8300 chip, so 300-400mm is ideal. Faster the better. Haven't completely ruled out Tak FS-60 but not sure as its only a doublet, is slower and would have to deal with the whole Tak adapter/spacer thing.
Thoughts? Helpful advice welcome...
