Description: | Nice triplet lens with good color correction. Looks like a longish Pronto but performs better. Some older versions have a screw-on dewcap and a less robust focuser. More recent versions have collapsing dewcap and standard high quality TeleVue focuser. Planetary and deep space views are very nice. A nice solid 3" apochromatic refractor, but optically and mechanically not quite up to the level of modern Apos such as the TV 85 or the Takahashis. |
