JOE - thanks for that. I was just reading up about image orientation in refractors. forgot that image is only swapped left to right but NOT inverted in refractors. The left to right i'm not that concerned about - it was more the inverted image that I wanted to correct.

I've got a Manfrotto 055CXB tripod and currently use a 488RC ball head for my spotting scope/DSLR etc.

Looking at the specs, the 488RC4 head has a capacity of 8kgs so plenty for an 80mm refractor + 2" diagonal and a decent 2" eyepiece.

Looking at the Orion ED80t CF at this stage.

cheers
