Thumbs up Happy with my GSO RC10 CF

I recently acquired one of these and am very happy with it. I have not had to bother adjusting collimation yet (Bintel set it up right I think see the attached image). The main issue I had was with the stock focuser - for an imaging scope it was not strong (flex). As it turned out my focuser was faulty and the replacement a lot better. I have fitted a motor driven moonlite anyway as I have and SBig, FW and sometimes and AO8 on the back, it is a luxury but a nice one to have. You would most likely need to do something about the SCT focus as well for imaging as manual focusing is a pita.

My other commenet is you may need an FR - in which case the AP ccd67 is a good unit if you have a smallish ccd like mine.
