My visit to Bintel, Sydney.
What an experience in Sydney,
I visited Bintel last weekend, and had a great time.
Being from QLD, I didn't know where the shop is, so I phoned and got directions.
I caught the train in from Windsor, then the light rail to Glebe and a short walk and there it was.
Who was there but the nice man from IISAC, I forget his name, but I think it is Mike, a great name.
I got some great gear and more importantly some great advice on imaging and the equipment I need to start astrophotography.
I bought a wonderful book on webcam imaging, a televue barlow, a 2 inch mirror star diagonal, and a new finderscope to replace the burnt out one that I ruined at IISAC viewing the Sun.
I spent way too much, but like a kid in a sweet shop what else can you expect.
My thanks to Bintel for their advice and their eftpos.
I will be back.
Mike.
