Thor101 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Hi, I’m new here so thought I would introduce my self. I have been playing at astronomy for about a year on a very cheap Optus 75mm reflector and have now upgraded to an old 8in Orion reflector. Has anyone got any experience of fairly old Orion telescope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonperformer Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Hi, Thor, and welcome to SGL. No experience of that particular scope, but will confidently predict that, compared to the 75mm, the views with it will blow you away. Enjoy the journey.
