( 5 / 5 )

I received mine a few weeks ago. Very nice scope, so well built. I was very surprised by how sturdy the focuser is, I purchased a Chinese 127mm APO a few years ago from another vendor and I had to immediately replace the focuser. This focuser is perfect. Unfortunately I have only had one night of viewing for a short window, the weather here has been terrible. From what I have seen is color free viewing of starts such as vega. No planets to view other than the moon and there was some color when out of focus, to be expected of course.
As soon as we have a clear night I will be headed out into a dark sky location to see some deep sky objects. I am quite certain this will be a keeper. BTW Markus takes great pride and has an excellent reputation.
