Omegon scopes any good ?

[Davey-T]

Anybody have experience of Omegon Scopes, may be the same as other branded versions ?

This looks interesting but knowing problems with other makes QC of quad lenses would be wary of jumping in.

Confusingly it mentions fitting a field flattener ?

Looks like a version of This But a fair bit cheaper.

Astroshop.eu own brand. They seem to be about the same as the Telescope Express versions.

...and Altair Astro...

Looks like Omegon jumped the wagon. That's good!

I’ve found that some of the Omegon stuff can be fairly expensive but they do have good deals from time to time.

Can't see anything wrong but be vary of it being a lemon just like any other kit that we buy. 

Happy to test it for you
