Celestron C11 , 8" Schmidt camera and 90mm RFT

The word unique is bandied around a lot but I think is appropriate with this offering .
Its an early C11 ( SN40 ) and 8" Schmidt camera that have been stripped of paint and polished to a high luster, the mount has had similar treatment as has the wedge .
There's also a 90mm F5.5 RFT ( not Celestron ) mounted just because it looks better that way.


Its functional but I must admit its been years since I looked through it as it was put together as a display piece and never fails to impress .


Working out a price isn't easy for a one of a kind but thinking $2900 is a good place to start.


Pick up Lake Bathurst but I will be going though Sydney next month and may be able to deliver.


PM if interested
