Skywatcher 30 cm f/5
Decided to bite the bullet and put the CGE Pro mount back to work...it seems to be running well
At 72 pounds,and700$ ...this big Newtonian is a mixture of good and bad...
Good in that it can do excellent and fast work...
and its cheap.
Bad in that the thing is heavy as blazes,blows around easily,...the focuser is indifferent,and the camera and finder scope are sometimes 8 feet in the air...(!)
