Tristan Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I just thought I'd say a quick hello! I bought a Skywatcher Explorer 130PM a couple of years ago and for the last 12 months or so it has been left neglected in my garage.Recently however, I have rediscovered the beauty of the night sky again and spent hours reading threads on SGL! I quite fancy having a go at some astro photography and am considering purchasing a new scope although I haven't made my mind up yet as to what to buy! I'm quite liking the look and portability of the SkyMax 127...Anyway, I have plenty of reading to do as I need to clean the primary mirror on my 130PM tomorrow!
