My thoughts exactly Mark, If I can't get a decent price here I will order one from the states. They are $429.00us about $70.00 cheaper than the orion now.
They even come with more accessories than the Orion and Skywatcher brands.I have read somewhere that the focuser altough rack and pinion is better than the crawford , it seems the crawford with some weight on it slowy moves out of focus, not good if you have a autoguider or camera in there.
Great review Mark enjoyed reading it.
cheers
david.
