Hi Ice,
I came across a couple of reviews of the SW Evostar 72ED that may help with your considerations.:

IMO, a smaller scope such as the new WO RedCat is the ideal size for your Star Adventurer, if your budget allows. Once you start adding extras (And in time you will!
) such as flattener, guider, filter wheel, motorised focuser etc, the weight of the Evostar setup will soon test the SA capabilities. That was my experience with a Borg scope of similar weight to Evostar 72 on the SA.

The main use will be astrophotography !! So if anyone has used or own either of them or knows a bit about them I would like the good and the bad.
Thanks in advance Ice  |
