Guide scope for MAK180 PRO on EQ5PRO mount

Hello to the community once again. Am going to purchase a guide scope for this system. What should I be looking at in your opinions.

Thanks

Hi

If it were me, I would be going for the SW ED80 Pro, 80mm x 600mm, for mounting advice, see the previous thread about mounting a guidescope on a C8.

I suggest the SW ED80 Pro because with 2" attachments, it also makes for a fine widefield imaging scope as well, you then could also use the same scope as a convienient grab and go scope or an excellent field scope, added bonus is that it will fit directly on your mount as well.

Cheers
