For Sale Status: Active  Advert Category: Telescope-Refractor  Advert # 35631 TMB/APM/Lomo 80mm f7.5 superapo (FT focuser) TeleVue Starbeam RDF Please phone if you want to chat about the scope. APM/Lomo super Apo 80mm f7.5 (600mm) in CNC tube. Max. field 4.6 degrees. Removeable section for binoviewing. This is argueably the best 80mm refractor ever made. I am the second owner of this scope which I bought a couple of months ago off the original owner. It was hand picked for him by Telescope House and has one of the highest strehls I have ever seen, 0.992. It has been used literally half a dozen times; four by the original owner (a perfectionist) and twice by myself. The lens is immaculate and has never been touched since purchase. It comes with the correct APM Vixen-compatible dovetail and a Skywatcher Pro case (APM did not supply a case.Some eyepieces the diagonal and Starbeam all fit in the case.) It has a full optical certificate and interferogram. Essentially it is a new telescope. The tube ring is machined for a Starbeam, which is sold separately.
