Must be hard to get in NA, you can order them in UK or EU.
If wanting a complete set up I would save for this.

Indeed a very nice scope. I never met an owner who did not like it. It is pity they don't sell them new in US anymore.

Upgraded focuser is a nice touch, although the factory single speed R&P is not bad once you tune it.

They do sell F8 version in US, but not F5. Go figure.

It does make you wonder why they do this at times.
Skywatcher accessories are same, more available here than NA
