Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

Just collected my Celestron 5SE today, i understand that celestron has two types of tubes, one painted and another anodised. I can't differentiate which is mine, it is a beautiful copper metallic shade, doesn't look painted to me. Could mine be anodised?

I thought all SE series comes in only orange? You mean they have black too?
Thanks.

I guess it should be the same as both the SLT & SE share the same handset & firmware.

from the picture, it seems that this mount is bigger than the other one, isn't it?
