Sky-Watcher Evostar 72ED DS-Pro
We have good news for everyone waiting for a Sky-Watcher Evostar 72ED DS-Pro ?
They have arrived in the UK and will be with dealers "imminently". (Possibly even tomorrow or Friday).
We have been assured we will receive enough to clear all existing backorders and there will be a small number remaining for new orders.
OK, I put the ASI1600 on the little scope for some serious imaging (intended at least).
I increased the backfocus distance to 60mm and I'm left with 1-2mm focus distance. The stars don't look good enough around the corners and there's not enough focus distance to increase the backfocus. Meh..
