[NOT REQUIRED] Looking for f/3-ish mirror

[mental4astro (Alexander)]

Hello all,

I'm seeing if anyone might have an f/3 mirror that needs a new home. Can be faster.

f/4 won't do as I have one.

Aperture size isn't much a concern. Can be 6", can be larger. Let me know what you have.

Thanks for looking,

Alex.

Ross has one in the RH200 he’s selling. You may have to purchase the rest of the scope with it though

Hi Mick,

Thanks for that , but it is not what I'm looking for. I am after just the mirror to build a Newt around.

Hi Alex,

There was a fellow member here on IIS, Logan (Lognic04) I believe, who made /was making a small f/3 mirror. Perhaps he has one for sale or will make to order. Other than that there's always fast refractors (camera lenses like a 300mm or 400mm f/2.8)

Best

This is for a specialised visual instrument to hunt down Integrated Flux Nebulae. This is why I need some aperture but more so that fast focal ratio. A frac or camera lens is not going to do.

Still looking for such a mirror.

f/3-ish mirror anyone?

Still looking.

Cheers,

I can always make you one but I don't think you would like the price as you are looking for a second hand mirror.
