FOR SALE
Astro Systeme Austria ASA N8 Astrograph in used but good condition
Superb 200mm f3.8 (720mm focal length) newtonian astrograph with stiff carbon fibre composite tube.
These are one of the best fast astrographs out there and is beautifully constructed.
This is one of the earlier N8 models with a 3" JMI crayford focuser and Robofocus focus stepper motor.
Low thermal expansion ceramic primary mirror, excellent optics, holds collimation very well. The JMI focuser performs very well with big loads.
Includes 3" Wynne corrector, Wynne SCT and T-thread connectors for attaching to your filter wheel or camera,
aluminium ASA saddles and two custom made heavy dovetail plates, ASA aluminium flight case, 2" Catseye autocollimator.
OTA and saddle/dovetail combo weighs a bit over 10kg. Wynne corrector will cover a fullframe sensor with very tight stars.
Galaxy image from previous owner in the USA.

Reluctant and regrettable sale, due to divorce impacts and not having time or place to use it properly since buying it about a year ago.
So it has to go.....

I will throw in a Robofocus control box as well. This scope packs up very neatly in the heavy duty flight case, pick up preferred,
but would consider 'Pack & Send' at buyers expense.

$3900

PMs please

thanks for looking :-) Guy
