U got a great scope there.

The thing i like about the skywatcher truss is the greater attention to detail paid to the internals. I like the black (non-shiny) struts and the fact they are on the exterior of the tube, so they don't really get in the way of the light path. This is a clever company I like skywatcher/saxon very much.

The built-in tracking system is a massive plus. Enormous. it is really required for planetary work.

I was hand tracking saturn at 158x for three hours a few nights ago and trying to draw it and it was so annoying! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i want a mak 200mm or this! LOL!
