Skywatcher motorised dob - coming soon

[toryglen-boy (Duncan)]

Gerry Gibbs Camerahouse is now advertising these. The oridinary 12" is $1250ish, and the tracking version is $3400

That more than the cost of the ordinary 12" version, 12" tube rings, and an EQ6 mount !!!

madness!!


they can keep it

or to put it another way, a 16" GSO dob, and Argo Navis, would cost the same

Whats the point of tracking paying that extra money for a machine i would rather spend it on a 5mm eyepiece (Which didnt come with the dob).
