Orion SkyQuest XT8 200mm, 1200mm = focal length f/6. eyepieces not from the set, but buy 12.5mm and 7mm, and 2x magnification lens. I don't remember if there was a front cover, but now it's gone, it was kept covered in the closet, but there is still some dust. and there is an additional collimator for adjusting the geometry if you take out the mirror for cleaning

#

@tired spoke, @ivory latch sorry for ping but thats what the seller said

tired spoke
#

Yeah sounds good. But the eyepieces are gonna cost like 150€ just so you know

ivory latch
#

yeah that will be great. you can just put a towel or something as a dust cover,

#

12.5mm and 7mm witha 2x barlow

tired spoke
#

Ah ok

#

Good deal anyways

ivory latch
#

the only thing you need to buy is a widefield eyepiece

#

probably a 35mm or something

fading ether
#

Hmm

tired spoke
#

Yea true

ivory latch
#

because with only a 12.5 and 7 mm, most deep sky targets will be too magnified and look very dim

#

Hmm k

#

I have an 8” and hardly use anything other than my 17mm. I have an 8mm too.
