The focuser on the 72 is the same as the larger scopes though not rotatable; it's solid and has long travel.

The TS72 was under $700 including post.

The reducer is William Optics but I've looked at figures on the TS website for their reducers and I think another 2mm should get me very close. I had to experiment a little with the TS115 too before settling on 4mm.
Sensational value really (Larger ones have a ROTATABLE focuser)...Fpl53 glass ..good focuser
Most scopes, even some Taks need focuser changes for AP..$700 IS Value. LOVE my FPL53 130mm Triplet. Got it posted in an Aluminium case for 3000 ONLY!...ENJOY!
