Semi-Apo or VR Filters

Hello All

I am after either a Baader Semi-APO filter or any of VR reduction filters made by Sirius Optics which I have been told are also very good at tackling CA.

In short I am looking for some filters to help with my old achro refractor.

I am quite open to any other suggestions if you happen to have something else which you think is quite good as well.

My only stipulation is the filter needs to be 1.25 size.

Please send me a PM should you have something that might do the job.

Damm I had one up until last Sunday , when some low life snuck into my house when I shot up to the local shops ( leaving the front door unlocked silly me ! ) and on about wednesday night I noticed my Alloy case with my Ortho's , barlows and filter's gone out ot the cupboard My Zeiss eyepieces were in it and that hurts ! ??? nothing else gone , ,,,
But Profiler there was a nice MV filter in it .
Tomorrow I am doing the pawn shops , Idiots took some astro gear ? worth nothing to the average person .

Sorry mate , I would have given it to you .
Never know my luck , I might find the case tomorrow , and if I do the MV is yours . Then I am going hunting . .

Hi profiler,
I have a sirius MV20 1.25" which I used with 127mm achro I no longer have. It was the best you could get at the time.
Yours for $50 +p&p, I paid more than $120 for it.pm me if interested.
Cheers Andy.

I am extremely sorry to hear about your misfortune and you are quite correct that the local pawn shops will ironically be the most effective venue wherein you are likely to recover your EPs in a small place like Darwin. I can already imagine your burglar looking for easily portable and yet potentially valuable items in your home. They walk past thousands of dollars worth of small tak's thinking they are no different to the telescopes in the toy stores and yet see a hard case thinking it must be valuable only to be disappointed when they open it to find what they think are some odd looking microscope parts inside.

My fingers are crossed and I sincerely hope you find something.
