Hi,

thanks for the interest, the scope is now currently RESERVED for viewing.
If the buyer backs out, you're next in line :)

OK TKS, but one-more thing before, do a carmera mount really do the job ?

I used a spotting scope on a carmera mount and it not smooth when i turn it (jerky and heavy shaking)? Any recommendations ?

A camera mount is of course not as good as a dedicated tripod :) .... I am using camera mount on my scope also ....... big problem, but once I got used to it, it's pretty ok.

As blurblock as said :)
It's not as smooth. But if your camera tripod is good enough, it can be quite smooth, but the good ones can cost as much as a mount for a telescope. Better to get the EQ2 that Sam is selling :)
