Where to view before buying?
Hello,
As I mentioned in a couple of other posts I am interested in an 8", 10" or 12" dob. The only problem is that I have never looked through one of these so am unsure of what I will see; by that, I simply mean what quality of viewing I will get with these telescopes, what it is like to observe with one of them (i.e. how comfortable they are to use, etc.).
I will contact the ASV in Melbourne but before joining (and going to one of their LMDSS sessions) wonder if there are any star parties or other observational opportunities around melbourne?
would love to hear from someone in the know.
cheers,
DJDD
