It is essentially the pronto (although a fraction shorter) with a bigger better objective.


Thanks Profiler ...another one to consider .. but .... I had a look through the Pronto in question, and I have to say ... what a " gem " ... so nice ..optics are lovely ... nice broadband coatings can be seen on the lens .. the Focuser ( although " single " speed ) is buttery smooth and the views are nothing to complain about either.... IMHO.

And so .... I took it home with me .... a few pics for you.
