Nice. CDKphil and Baz Armstead may also be interested, though they are more pro-photographer/imager types

Matt, welcome to join us if ever visiting Cbr.

The TSA is a superb refractor indeed!
I was in a viewing night a couple of weeks ago and one of the mates brought one along.
There was no comparison.The view through it is the best among the scopes present!
A LS90 came a close second in term of viewing preference that night followed by a Fl102s.
A couple of dobs were left alone most times.
And there was no comparison between thr TSA anf the FL102s.
In term of sharpness, and contrast the TSA is the King!

I just found a supplier that specializes in making APO Bino Scopes. Apparently they can supply full system or kit to modify 2 x Tak TOA130 or 2 x TSA120 scopes to make them into Bino Scopes with a mounting bracket as well.

Could you imagine TSA120 Bino Scopes

Nice

Surprising that the LS90 beat the Vixen FL102s in terms of sharpness and contrast though

Sounds like the perfect visual system,
let me know when you have the brackets and I will bring the TSA to Canberra. :
