l bought it brand new from Advanced Telescope Supplies, l was looking to get a W.O 2" dielectric diagonal and they were $465.00 and then l saw the Zenithstar package all up for $870.00 inc diagonal and VR-1 filter, it has a slightly shorter f/l than the Orion but l would say the viewing is equal, the Zenithstar is certainly better build quality than the Orion and it has a fully rotatable focuser but optically they are on a par.
