Intes Micro M703 Mak Cassegrain.

Alex-Mart is at it again....

For sale is an APM/Intes Micro M-703 7" F/10 (1800mm F/L) Mak Cassegrain..

The scope is in fantastic condition... Theres plenty of reviews around the net, cloudy nights etc...

I've read reviews of this scope vs a 5" Astro-physics APO for visual use, the reviewer claimed them to be on par optically, however the image in the M703 was reportedly brighter (due to the 2" extra aperture.)

The scope comes in a soft padded bag. It has a Losmandy D-Plate fitted to it currently, but also comes with the original Vixen dovetail bar.. Also included is a Feathertouch focuser adapter (no FT focuser included) and the finder bracket... (no finder included, but any 50mm finder will fit in the bracket...

The scope as a 2" SC thread on the rear of it like any 8" SCT. So any SCT accessories will fit it.. Diagonals/crayfords etc...

New, these cost $2500USD....

I'll let this one go for $1500AU... will ship via courier Australia wide included in the price...

Cheers.

I'm not replacing it H.. Too many toys - not enough hands or time to play with them all.. Being as this is the toy I see myself using the least... Its time it went to someone who will enjoy it...

Gee Alex I think you waited longer for the scope than you actually owned it. At this rate you are going to run out of scopes to try . Nice scope though definately worth considering but I have no more room.

As is the case with me Mark, no room for it, not enough use to warrant keeping it...

On the upside...

Sale Pending...
