Condition:
This is a black-tube C8 OTA in excellent condition, with clean optics and body. It is an older model, without Fastar. This is just the OTA, with no finder, diagonal, or eyepiece. However, it does include all of the following:
- a Feathertouch dual-speed focuser (installed);
- a 2" visual back, with 1.25" adapter;
- a padded carry bag;
- a Vixen footer for finderscopes;
- a Telrad base (Telrad sold separately);
- both dust caps; and,
- a Vixen dovetail bar.
This is a great deal at well over ONE-THIRD OFF and won't last!
We do not have the original shipping boxes for this, so this is for in-store pickup only.
- 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly
- Starbright XLT coatings
- 2032 mm focal length (f/10)
