Hi all,

I am selling a New Borg 77ED (version II) with new tube rings for S$1200 firm.

The tube rings are on the way from Japan. The scope is used only once. The pic shows that only usage. 2" and 1.25" adapters are included.

Very portable and sharp astrophotography scope. The lens is 77ED II lens.

Selling because I am funding for a camera.

Thanks for looking.

Very good scope for Solar Astrophotography too, especially with its helical focuser!

Off the topic: Well, the jump from visual observer to try to do astrophotography requires large increase in captial input, that's why I have to sell many things.

Anybody who is interested to look at the scope may pm me to view it at NUS.

Some comments about the Borg scope. Users can just get the 101 ED OTA next time and just screw it on to turn it into 101 ED Apo. Focal reducers, 0.85x or 0.4x are available from Borg for photography.

The old 76ED has baffled dewshield that makes retracting dewshield jerky. This 77ED has matt black dewshield that slides smoothly. The drawtube has very little play compared to the older version.
