Stellarvue F50 finder

Posted By david elosser
This pretty much says it all:

http://www.astromart.com/articles/article.asp?article_id=354

The achromat air spaced doublet is polished to optical accuracy (1/6th wave PTV). The fact that you can take this finderscope to to higher powers is nice but I admit I rarely take advantage of this feature. Stellarvue also makes an F80, but it is quite a bit heavier and admittedly is probably most appropriate for large SCT's and Dob's etc. Their newer F60 actually fits in the F50 finder rings. It has a slower achromat objective though, so the F50 will have better correction at the edges albeit with less light grasp.

Thanks for taking this forum Donald.
Is it okay to say the "B-O" word?

Favorite Grab and Go Refractors

Posted By david elosser
All my refractors are actually set up ready to go in my study, from my little ED66 to my SV102ABV. But the one I grab the most when I want a quick look is my Nighthawk on a Bogen 3021 tripod and Microstar mount.
