Mick

did you have that on the LX200?, does a rail come withit as well?

Any closer shots of lens and tube, + focus assembly

hi Houghy, no, a bit big for the LX200, l may have a dovetail rail l can throw in, heres a pic of the focuser.

h0ughy, I have the 102mm version (Celestron, same scope different tag) and I can vouch for the views it gives. I nearly bought the 150 but just couldn't afford it at the time.

it sound very good but not quite fitting what I wanted it for. A bit like a V8 engine in a mini.
