Celestron 80mm (3.1") F11 firstscope refractor



This is the smallest telescope i currently own. It is seen on the above picture piggy backed to my old LX50 telescope which I no longer own. Telescope is long black scope on top of LX50. Currently this telescope uses the same tripod as my 5" MCT and i use it mainly for lunar and deepsky astrophotography. This telescope provides stunning wideangle views of deepsky and lunar images. Coupled with the accurate mounting of my 5" telescope, this can be used for longer exposure photography and thus I tend to use it often on the bright deepsky objects. This telescope has been with me for over 8 years while other telescopes I have owned and sold!
