TS Optics 102ED FPL51 - Any info/reviews/users?
Rob replied to parallaxerr's topic in Discussions - Scopes / Whole setups
I agree ... Back it goes!. i know that's a hassle. But you shall never be of what damage has been done! -
As always funds become tight. Astro sales to follow (don't you just hate cars when they go horribly wrong!). So I'm venturing into vintage lens astro imaging!. feels like a fun journey currently.. not looking for Hubble results here, just an alternative style of imaging. Anyhow grabbed two bargain lens's. Takumar 70-150mm Zoom & Dianon 200mm f4.5 Zoom with 2 x Tele converter. So lets see where this goes!
Also great fun sharing info & chatting with Charl (xteemchaos) another vintage lens user in our SGL family.

Super EP's Dave. I had a few around 10 years ago!. More stuff I should have never moved on

I agree. What a super scope that looks!.

The 75 is better than an EQ5 as it has metal bearings on both axis. This means it can carry 13kg the same as the bresser EXOS2. I'd save and pop the SW goto on there. Regards Rob

I've pondered a wood tripod for some time now. even more so with the beast (Bresser 127L) I own. I'm thiking of making some replacement wood legs for my EQ5 1.75 Steel leg tripod as an upgrade. Have many of you done this?. Best

Cheers for info Stu.. humm, yes the weight is important, research is a defo then. I really do like your example there.. I think the materials really make it a super nice item. I look forward to your first light report when ready Rob
