johninderby Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) Great move. ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป Will fit in well with the Skywatchers so dependiing on budget the customer will have more choice. ย Edited April 29, 2020 by johninderby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Second Time Around Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) Excellent! Just a heads up that the "about this product" section still says it comes with a red dot finder rather than a 6x30.

johninderby Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) The Baader finder shoe will fit the scope for those wishing to upgrade to a Skywatcher RACI finder. The standard Skywatcher shoe mounting holes arenโt ย far enough apart to fit without drilling one new mounting hole. https://www.firstlightoptics.com/finders/baader-universal-quick-release-finder-shoe-base.html Or any SCT type finder shoe should do if you can source a cheaper alternative to the Baader.ย ๐ค Edited April 29, 2020 by johninderby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johninderby Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I would assume so with it now have the optical finder. ๐ค Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
