Fat Takahashi...WOW!

[emadmoussa]

Quite a beast scope...

[nephilim]

Envy doesnt even start to cover it :Envy:

[emadmoussa]

Just hoping there are not Japanese guys called Takahashi on the forum...otherwise, I will sound really offensive

[swamp thing]

That looks light, and portable......not

Does it come with Marius Pudzianowski to help you set it up.

[emadmoussa]

Even the mount is a monster....arrrghhh!

[SnakeyJ]

I'd be happy with that guidescope!

[long_arms]

Quite a price as well! http://www.optcorp.c...ph-trc0300.html

Wonder how much the mount costs? Reckon it would be alright on a heq5 ?

Dan

Edit: The mount costs £15,000 ...Envious isnt the word!!

[SnakeyJ]

$20K for the OTA and they don't even through in the nice APO finder, but a poxy 7 x 50 - at least they have the grace to include the tube rings

[Mattscar]

I don't envy having to carry it outside atleast.

[Stargazer Jack]

Erm...wow! Not the sort of telescope where you pop down to your local Astro shop and hand over the cash

[long_arms]

I have to admit that;

If I were ever in a position (pfft ) to spend £30000+ on a telescope setup;

I would build an observatory first. It would be like pennies compared to the £30000 setup!

Imagine this one sitting in the middle of your lounge...

I thought about that, but it's better to have a Scope and no Observatory, than an Observatory and no Scope.

Edit: I could manage with a tent for awhile.

[Vega26]

Wow. That makes my setup seem rather quaint by comparison.
