Joaquim Q Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) Hi, i..m on Stargazers Lounge for long time ago, but now i have a new scope at last!!! The scope is a Skywatcher classic200p dobsonian, and i received it just one month ago. I.m really happy with it. For now, i.m using the stock eyepieces that come with the scope, a 25mm and 10mm super plossl 52. Yesterday i was received a Celestron Omni barlow, and that expands my magnification range. I posted some pics with my set. Congratulations to Stargazers lounge team, this is one of the best sites to learn about astronomy and equipment. Besf regards to everybody Edited August 23, 2019 by Joaquim Q Notifications 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-philip- Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Mucho gusto! I love BCN, amazing place. I have been many times, last time was for the Grand Prix.. The telescope you have is in my opinion one of the best, I had one, I loved it, and I miss it a lot! I hope you have lots of happy hours exploring the sky with it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloz1664 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Hi Joaquim, and welcome back to the Lounge That's a nice SW Dob you have there, many fruitful hours using it. I fell in love with Barcelona the first time I visited it. How are you able to move around the city with so many tourists visiting your magnificent city.

Thank you, i love the simplicity of the dobsonians, in 2 minutes, take the scope out, put the eyepiece on the focuser, and enjoy. Best regards.
