This scope previously was brought in by shoelevy from OPT( usa ), had mirror shift problem due to delivery, then was sent to AstroScienece at Science Center to be serviced by Albert. Now it is perfect.

Great Optics! Close up of C8 scope no. 950673

BTW, from my home you can see Mars rising @ night, Seven sisters beside it and the Orion Belt Stars with M42 in His Glory.

Picture of the moon using C8 with Nikon D70 ISO 1600 f10 1/60 speed , single shot prime focus using Celestron delux tele-extender. Moon pic is edited and sharpened by Nikonview.

Optics are sharp and relatively contrasty...but could be better.
