Ferrari optical gear finally publicly available

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

I don't know if any of you remember back earlier this year when I announced that William Optics will be bringing out a line of 'Ferrari' optics.

Well, they have now been publicly launched.
1 binocular and 2 telescopes.

Yep, I siad 'Ferrari'. The car mob!

Wow, they are really expanding the market.
Get a scope, then get the laptop (http://global.acer.com/products/notebook/fr3000.htm), then hopefully not to far in the future they will bring out a Toucam of their own.
It's all about trends people!!!

That's very pretty!

How is it's performance compared to other short refractors?

Being a Ferrari, you'd expect it to be a lot faster!

Well, it had to be said! Onya Steve

If we define F/4 as being fast, then I'm afraid WO/Ferrari haven't left the starting line. Looks more like a sports saloon than a racing spec considering its 66mm F/5.9. Love the marketing though. When is the F/30 4WD/Truck version coming out - designed for planetary use.

wheres the Schumacher mount to drive it?

You need to ban these from Star Parties, cos they'll just bump other scopes out the way.
