10"sct vs Meade Mak 7

Posted By George Mavromates
Thinking of upgrading to a LX 200 10". Will it perform better on the planets when properly collimated than my Meade Mak 7 which has very good optics? Has anyone done a sisde by side comparison?

Mak 7

Posted By George Mavromates
I own an older lx-50 I picked up on Astromart. It is an excellent performer sky conditions permitting. It is rather heavey, 90lbs. Cooling is an issue. In very cold weather yoy will need to leave it out 2 hours. I have had excellent views on Mars. My views on saturn were slightly better than a 5" Meade ED I owned. I could clearly see the c ring all around the planet.You will be happy with it, especially in a goto version.

Posted By George Mavromates
Saw an add on the Astronomics web site that meade is comming out with a deep sky imager for $299 that is able to take up to one hour exposers. May be a good deal if it lives up to expectations. As usual no release date.
