neil groves Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 My scope turned up on Monday and was damaged so sending it back today....I was miffed about it but it might be a good fortune because I have had time to talk to people at length (and probably [removed word] some off) in the forums about equipment and mounts and I am just going to get the heavy mount for now, then save for the scope at a later date.hope you have good luck with your choice!Neil.

misfit Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 thanks neil, hope you get yours sorted, what scope are you looking at getting in the future ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil groves Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Well I was going to get a ST 120 refractor of some sort for wide view photography but I have realized through looking in the gallerys that great pics can be had with ED 80's, so I am back at square one, I hope to be content for a while though with a new mount so I can just use my DSLR and practice different techniques while I am saving up for the scope which will probably be a concern for next year.Neil.
