Wonderful piece of equipment. - Review by Arthur
An excellent telescope for the hobbyist/amateur. I'm having fun looking at Saturn and others! Had to make a few adjustments to the altitude adjustment for my latitude (18degS). Also insufficient counterweight supplied with the scope for RA balancing! Otherwise a good buy. (Posted on 17/07/11)
Pros: user friendly, Good price, quality +++, Beautifully crisp image!
Cons: Size; it's not small. But that's because it's a Dob; it's expected
Second Review still outstanding - Review by Dean Bullock
To my above review posted 17/5/11 about portability of the scope.
After experimenting with the scope tube (easily removed from the tripod using easy finger knobs and hinged assembly), mark the tube and mounting bracket with a spot of nail varnish. Take outside to line up the dots and thats it. this scope is already outstanding quality but when combined with the celestron eye piece and filter kit man u got it all. (Posted on 25/05/11)

Amazing - Review by Dean Bullock
Not overly portable unless dismantled but over all a lovely scope to use.I would not recommend for children or any one unable to do a bit of lifting to move it outside before using.That said i chose this scope because of the 200mm lens for the extra light gathering capacity and boy has it paid off even with the extra weight the stability and ease of use is amazing. 30 years of looking at the heavens and this is the best by far.Thanks ozscopes for the help and outstanding service.Dean (Posted on 17/05/11)
