the vixen 70s guidescope will do fine with 70mm aperture and 400f.l. (f5.7). It has a micro-positioning adjustment for alignment of guidestars w.r.t to your capture object. It will suffice with wide-field imaging. Hi Tommy! miss ya guys!

Hi Tomy,

You can consider the following scope available at BIG Superstore . It is a short metal tube , 70 mm coated glass, FL 400 mm refractor with a small 20 mm finder scope and comes witha diagonal, 25 and 6 mm Kellner eps and a tripod to boot all for 50 S$.

I have up loaded the picture under Album Section

Hi Tommy and Kochu,
Hey, that's a pretty good deal for the 70mm. Would not mind checking out and helping you out, Tommy. Might be interested in getting one myself.
Where is Big Superstore?
