++ postage costs in addition to above.
I will sell the above items separately if required.
I have made up a sturdy carrying case for the OTA from an AEG toolbox purchased new from Bunnings and included lots of foam padding. Pick up from Bathurst NSW is recommended but can post if required.
There are only minor blemishes on the OTA and the tube holder (clam shell) has a scratch on the side which is cosmetic only (see photo).
Please note that this scope performs well with small to medium size sensors (and most likely visually), and whilst the collimation is adequate for most purposes it is not absolutely perfect. This may be evident when imaging with full frame small pixel sensors such as my ZWO ASI6200 camera. Please make contact via PM if interested for further details.
Here are links to a sample of images that I've taken with various cameras and with this OTA:
*
Lambda Centauri, Canon 60Da DSLR
*
The "Lady and the Clown", QSI683 CCD
*
Eta Carina Nebula - Narrowband, ASI6200 CMOS
Any questions on the above, please send a PM.
