    That was my thinking, prod around 17mm,that is a great price... though 30-40 working days delivery.

    Hi, I'm considering adding a new eyepiece, I have a gap from 12.5mm to 24mm.I was thinking of around 14mm but not sure of a higher one, probably swa or uwa. Don't want to spend big money, any ideas. Paul

    Couple of quick shots this morning,terrible seeing and about 40% of the scope was blocked by the obsy roof....but after making the effort to set the alarm there was no going back,but looked nice to the naked eye.Not sure why they are so pixilated......

    Managed to get this yesterday morning,very close to the Sun so wouldnt attempt if i had no goto. Image was really like looking over a fire and at times could hardly make out the cresent,really bad seeing,but thought i would image it any way. c9.25 @f10 and zwo 224mc.

    Yes John,tried last night with the 12",but could barely see the galaxy,i think under dark skies you may have a chance.
