It's a nice looking piece of gear Jimbo. Can I have it? I'm looking forward to seeing it in action. Imagine what it would be like if they made it in f/5 drooool

At f/5 I'd drool like one of my Saint Bernards. LOL They do make a field flattener for it now. A 3 inch .7 reducer for imagers.

LMAO dso
Dude your too much. If I had a camera I would let you see for yourself on a broadcast however I'm with out as mine is in for a repair. From what little I can tell the ota should be a really nice fit to video. I do expect some color even though it is a triplet. If a refractor is going to show color on stars I think video cameras are a good way to tell. They are sensitive for the blue and violet colors. I have not seen one yet that did not show some color with a video camera on it. That said the details should be really sharp and I do expect them to be. I'll post ahead of time for my next broadcast once I get the camera back.
Signed Evil Jimmy.

Congrats, Jim!
She's a beautiful scope! I've gotten to drool at her in person a few times, as Explore Scientific's HQ is in my town and they have a little store.
Real nice folks!
Best regards,

Yes it must be nice to walk in to their shop like that. I'd be looking like one of my Saint's again if I walked in to that shop. :>)
They have outstanding customer service and I am not the only person who will tell you that.

I have. Not fun I can tell you. LOL The drool from one of these guys is enough to put the fire out in a Dragons mouth. BWA HA HA HA Don't make me sick one on you Dragon Dude.
