Thinking about selling my FLT132 FPL53 triplet apo refractor due to health issues and unstable skies. This is a 2015 model I purchased new only a few months ago. It is in completely new condition, clean optics and no scratches. Weight is between 9 and 10kg.
The scope has a nice 3.5" rack and pinion dual speed focuser with a rotolock visual back, similar in function to the Baader clicklock visual backs.
The optics are of very high quality with no obvious aberrations and the optics are smooth. A defocused star shows no zones or astigmatism and the rings are smooth and of even brightness. No false colour is seen around bright objects. This is the newer steel lens cell introduced in 2013.
A new FLT132 is well over $6000 with current exchange rates, mine is for sale at $4500 and looks brand new.
