Well. My first real telescope has arrived. A Saxon ED120 courtesy of Astromelb. Apart from being a bit bigger than the 10x62cm advertised I'm quite happy with it so far.
First light was as soon as I got it out of the box. The sun with an orion solar filter.
A lot of little bacteria like shapes everywhere though so i'll have a look and see if the telescope or eyepiece needs a clean.
Next on the list is a right angle and a camera adapter, eventually a HEQ5 to replace the camera tripod that I'm using.
