Sure is, Brian. I ordered one!

Nice one, Laurie. Should be about as portable as your 80mm but a step up in aperture and quality. Let us know when it arrives.

LOL, the $500 bit might have been the issue mate, it's $500 off, not $500 total.

Still managing to resist...

Apparently all sold now. Mine is about to be shipped. Can't wait!

MortonH · #18 31-01-2013, 12:23 PM

Still showing as available on the website, but I'm not going for it. Spent too much already this year and I love my SV80ED. You gonna keep both scopes?

I got an email from them this morning, and they said they are all sold. I think I'll keep the Nitehawk as well-its a beautiful little scope, and if I ever want to use a bin0-viewer it has a removable section of the tube so it can get focus without a barlow. I cannot see any false colour in mine-is yours the same?

MortonH · #20 31-01-2013, 01:32 PM

My Nighthawk shows a tiny amount of false colour on bright objects, but it could be atmospheric rather than the optics. And I only notice if I go looking for it. Definitely a keeper!
