Have not spent much time on the Moon, will be my next target after Mars Opposition.
How long have you had your Mak Cass 180? Happy with it?

Hi Justin,
I bought mine second hand on The forum here. Cleaned it up replaced the dovetail with padded out tube rings and initially used it for lunar photography which it excels at. a couple of weeks ago whilst taking pics of the moon swung the lunar focussed scope to Jupiter and was surprised at the detail in the stacked images. Am very happy with it, however with the closeness of mars I miss my old 9.25” SCT.
