Hi All - A few days ago, just before my wife said "NO !!!" I managed to buy a new SkyWatcher Equinox 120ED and even more surprising the sky was clear enough the next evening for a quick look at the stars. With a borrowed 17mm Nagler Radian and my ST8 camera I managed a quick test over the next couple of hours. With what I experienced in that time I am more than satisfied with the images that this scope produces both visually and photographically - Its a keeper.
