I had the new mount and scope out tonight at Kulunura and it was a very nice combination...I need to work on the tension a bit to suit my taste but it is a nice sturdy mount for the ED80...I am pleased with them both.
I used my Denkmeir binoviewers for the first time tonight in the ED80 and it performed nicely. Although the views were limited by the size of the scope whaat could be seen was very nice...Orion Nebula, Eta Carina and Saturn is where I spent my time. The views were very comfortable and I found myself spending much more time at the eyepiece pulling our small details...I can't wait to use them in a larger scope!
I used Denkmeir 21 mm eyepieces (gave me 40x) and later shifted to 15 mm TV plossls (adjusting them to 100x in high power mode)...
I can't wait to see the moon!
