New scope arrived today...Bresser AR-127

#1

Post by Razz »

As the title says, the new scope arrived today. This scope is WAY bigger than my SvBony but I think I'm gonna love this one. I'm glad I have the EQ6-R mount coming because I don't think my Az/GTe will be too happy with this scope. I'm no expert but I don't think the Az/GTe will be sturdy enough to hold this scope steady. Now, having said that, if the weather holds out this weekend I'll set it up on the Az/GTe to at least get the finder scope dialed in and then see what happens. Anyway, here's a quick picture...

Don't even try to put it on Az/GTe, unless you want to kill that little mount. EQ6-R would be a perfect match.

Thanks Andrey (hope I got your name right) maybe I'll wait until I get the EQ6-R mount to do the finder scope alignment as well...thanks...

Congratulations on the new refractor!
I have had many Bresser telescopes in the past and they were always good quality.
At f/9.4 you should get some very nice views :)

That should be an awesome performer as long as you're not too sensitive to CA. CA will get worse as you crank up the power. I had a 127mm refractor once and it gave very nice views. It was a f/6.5.
