Hi Guys - Here is the advert for the FSQ that I have been getting inquiries about. It is one of the rarer early series (Serial No.18) when they used Fluorite elements instead of the ED currently used.

It has worked perfectly for many years. It has a dew heater installed but it can be removed if you want your optics to dew up.

The kit includes a genuine Takahashi travel bag (Tenba) a mounting bracket for a Robofocus motor, clam shell, 2" Takahashi diagonal and an STL11000-TAK adaptor made by Precision Parts, mounting bracket for 50mm guide scope (no guide scope)

It has a flat 88mm image circle so it will accommodate all CCD sizes for a while to come! I took 6cmx7cm film shots with it for some years.

It has a some paint missing but no dents and the glass is mark free. But if you want to get one of the Fluorite versions of arguably the world's best photographic 4" scope this is one of them.

$3800 ono - Free delivery in Sydney. Buyer pays freight elsewhere.
