***SOLD*** 8" Skywatcher OTA.

This OTA is only a few months old and started life as a standard Skywatcher DOB.

I have added rings and dovetail bar for mounting on an EQ mount, and added a lowprofile 10:1 crayford focuser.

This ex-DOB can achieve focus with a DSLR and sample photos are attached. Astro photos taken with a standard 450D.

I have the original DOB mount, which is unused and still flat packed, the side plates and the original R&P focuser, if you want them.

This scope comes with a 38mm extension tube, so you can achieve focus with an eyepiece around the same point as the DSLR.

Comes with all original packaging, finder scope, 2 inch to 1.5 inch adapter plus 2 x 1.5 inch eyepieces.

$300 + postage.
