Australian retailers who source from Asia would be unaffected? As would american manufactured astronomy gear (Astro-physics / TEC etc)
On the surface, yes I suppose so, certainly for Aus importers like Tasco and others who deal direct, there may be no change. However, US manufactured astronomy gear (as you mentioned) could well have input components sourced from China which maybe affected by the tariff. It's too early for anything other than speculation, and hopefully this will resolved before implementation.
