A tremendous advantage of this telescope is the ability to exactly balance the tube to avoid it moving with the weight of added equipment, large eyepieces, cameras, large finders etc.
Orion Optics 200mm F6 Dobsonian is one of their most popular Dobsonian models. Being F6 the tube easily fits across the back seat of a family car with room to spare. Weighing less than 20 Kg, it is an ideal quick set up medium sized instrument with minimum weight. The mounting is made from aluminium plate, similar to that used in aircraft production and is incredibly strong and coated with hard polymer for scratch resistance.
The ORION 150mm F8 De-Luxe Dobsonian has all the features of the ORION 150mm F8 Dobsonian with the addition of several key upgrades to improve both mechanical and optical performance.
