Skywatcher ST80 Refractor



New telescope has arrived, I wanted short wide field refractor to suppliment my 130m. I opted for the Skywatcher ST80.
A brilliant little scope, I have mounted it on the same EQ2 mount as the Skywatcher 130m. Some great wide field views. I took a couple of images with the scope and am just getting used to using the scope. I find that my Toucam needs an extention tube to get back focus on the scope. For this I used two barlow lens cases with the lens unscrewed.

Listen to this space for more on the scope!
