Re: TS Optics telescopes
The TS 130mm f/ 7 Photoline is a very nice refractor, visually quite stunning.
I have recommended it many times.

Re: TS Optics telescopes
I bought the 115mm f7 lens and rolled my own tube assembly and it works very well and they ship fast. Order on Monday and get it Friday in usa.
Arizona- where the sky's are not cloudy all night.
Triple lensed fracs are so yummy when looking at planets.

TSS Photo of the Day
Re: TS Optics telescopes
I have been looking at the TS Optics brand as well. With Lady Fractor’s input, have decided to go with the Photo Line Doublet SD Apo 102 mm f/ 7 - FPL53 / Lanthan Objective. However, like most things astronomically it is out of stock. They tell me it will be available the end of October.
I was glad to read about the fast shipping.

Re: TS Optics telescopes
A nice choice Kerry, I think you will enjoy it for a long time.
Waiting till end October is not so bad, I have waited 18 months before and some take 24 months+ to receive.
