Forgot to mention, this is StarBright coated C11.

Images aside, this is also a great visual telescope, as it can be used very effectively with binoviewers.

It in fact remains the smallest aperture that could visually show me the elusive Encke/Keeler gap in outer ansae of Saturn's rings.
It displayed Sirius' companion years before it became "easy". It is my favourite Lunar telescope as it offers both comfort of seating as well as using both eyes which makes my floaters dissapear.
This C11 will remain sharp (seeing permitting, as long as it is cooled properly) at magnifications well over 800 times.
And yes, it allows you to image detail on Jupiter's moons (see Ganymede image)

Again, all inspections are very welcome.
