BD 100ed

Hi Nicole,

I bought the above scope from Bintel last year. The service was excellent and the advice before and after purchase second to none. Since then I have bought a number of eyepieces and other gear from them and they are quick to say if they think the proposed purchase is not appropriate. There are a few cheaper suppliers around but I like the way Bintel checks your purchase before dispatching to ensure all is working well.

The BD is an excellent scope. The HEQ5 Pro mount works very well, is stable and relatively easy to move around and put away. The software is reliable and the scope points and tracks well after some practice. I have found it an excellent beginners outfit and I am starting to get some good images with a Canon 60d.

Next stop will be a tracking scope. I was told if the bug bites it is no good scratching with anything except a credit card.

Have fun.

John
