New Toy!

Almost. But not yet. Meaning I confirmed buying the Celestron C8 SCT from Arief. But will to wait for 2 weeks before I can get my hands on it 'cos Arief wants to try some webcam astrophotography. Here are some of the pictures.

Beautiful isn't it? I saw Arief selling it at Singastro . But I didn't enquire 'cos I still had my huge Celestron 8" f5 Newtonian. I bought it together with the LXD55 GOTO mount, which was what I really wanted. Glad to find a buyer for the 8" Newt 'cos it's way to large for me to handle. So the moment I off-loaded the CN8 I sms-ed Arief.


According to Weixing, it started to rain immediately after he sent me Arief's mobile no. There's really something about the curse of new purchase of telescopes... Only this time it wasn't me. Jamie bought the C90 from Weixing and Jacky bought the CN8 from me. I think you probably noticed that our equipement goes around. Can't be helped. 2nd hand equipement are more affordable.
