Rh200 mkii-at

Downsizing from two imaging telescopes down to just the one so this Italian optical speed demon has to go. I have some international interest at the moment but I would prefer to sell it locally purely so as to not have to post it

What's included is:
- Officina Stellare RH200 MKII-AT F/3 (with optional rings)
- FLI Atlas + near a dozen various adapters I've got for it.
- 2x dew straps
- 8" 12v Artesky Flat Panel

I have used this telescope with an ASI1600, QHY163M, QHY183M, ASI094 & QHY600 and found it to perform well. It's not optically perfect, it has a little trefoil astigmatism which vanishes once you have images from both sides of meridian. I have been told by Officina Stellare it is within specification and from what I've been able to glean, most RH200s have some kind of optical short fall. As can be seen from the following images, it's not an issue.

Looking for $12,500. Willing to ship Australia wide but would prefer a local sale. I will be in SA in a week for any interested parties over the border.
