Televue Pronto 70mm ED Doublet refractor

Looks a decent price for a quality brand, would treat myself but would have to look for a new place to live once she had thrown me out!

That's my excuse as well Alan

[great_bear]

Ah... Saved by not having enough spare cash after buying an SCB-4000

- someone's in for a treat though!

Makes the megres 72 look shabby!

Im not allowed....... :|

Ditto,

I have had to reign in the spending... oh so tempting though!

I use one of these as a Solar Scope. A coronado 60 (or a 40mm with adapter) threads straight onto the front. I found this far better than the dedicated Coronado solar 60mm scope and you can even remove the filter and use it at night!

[MjrTom]

Somebody please buy it and put me out of my misery!

[great_bear]

Somebody please buy it and put me out of my misery!

-yes, come on folks! - especially since it comes with a 40mm TV Plossl thrown in for the price too!

If you lend me the money ill let you borrow it

How could I refuse!

I so nearly went and bought this but I am currently saving up for a mirror set, and buying this would set me back.

I can't look at the ad though it's so tempting.

I love their honesty - "Please note that the RRP for this product is a complete GUESS - they are no longer available and we can't find any record of what they originally cost. However we are confident that our Outlet price represents very good value for money"

Always had good dealings with the guys up there.

[Rossco72]

Given that the 85 has an RRP of £2k they are probably right!!

Funnily enough I have exactly the same problem

Although.. if it still there when I get home...

OOPPPPSSS...its gone :D:D

Should look quite nice alongside the Vixen ED81S I bought form them a few weeks ago...

My 13mm Ethos is still safe then....but it got close.

[Psychobilly]

I "hate" Telescope Outlet but in a nice way - I keep buying stuff from them .... I am a sucker for a "bargain"....

[MjrTom]

Very nice Peter

And thanks for preventing the breakdown of my marriage lol!

[Psychobilly]

Whose to say if I dont get on with it it might "re-appear" on the for sale section ... for what i paid for it...

Just had a call from Neil.. it will be with me Tomorrow... Clouds included....

Just had the collection and tracking confimation from the couriers... Look like it will be another logistically painless transaction with Telescope Outlet... I can't fault them...

[andrew63]

Thats a nice scope, but you need that lovely panoramic ash mount to compliment it!

[Psychobilly]

I'll use some cheapo EP's and a camera adpator and bung it on a photo tripod more like hope it doesnt' get me started down the TV route...

[Rossco72]

That'll be a cracker Peter for some lovely widefield work with large DSLR chips

Cheers

[Psychobilly]

I'm hoping so... if it can do it without a reducer flattener I will be even happier.. Otherwise I guess a TRF2008 will be needed... It should complement the Vixen ED81S and reducer nicely...
