For Deep Sky Astrophotography
SV503 102 ED + focal reducer 0.8x
Great product. High quality of every detail, everything fits perfectly and is build with good quality materials. I ordered and received package in about 2 weeks to Poland. Delivery to EU included all required VAT and customs - all handled by SVBony. With included in package focal reducer it is possible to make pictures using DSLR. Big 102mm aperture is great for seeing more details and makes this telescope more universal for deep space photography and planets too. Focuser reduces focal to around 570mm for a better DS. Chromatic aberration is much better with ED dublet lenses then in other achromatic products I used so far - not an APO off course but very nice. I can recommend the product, and so far I am very satisfied especially for the price. I also had great contact with the Company handling my request/order.

I wanted a scope to use for astrophotography . I didn't want to break the bank. This scope fills the bill. It's not a APO but you won't hardly notice it in your photos. I'm very pleased with the pictures I've been getting with this scope. If you have extra money to spent, put that money on mount that your buy, that is even more important than the scope. anyway I think it is a great little scope and at f7 a petty fast good light gatherer. If you plan to take pictures make sure you get the .8 field flattner...
Awesome little telescope with a small, but annoying design failure
I got this scope a vew days ago. As expected, the quality of manufacturing is at a very high level. Unfortunately I did not yes have the chance to get a first light with the scope, but I am sure it will produce great images.
Although, there is a small, but annoying design failure an the focusser in combination with the reducer/flattener. When you unscrew the visual back and attach the reducer/flattener, there is no mechanical stop on the retracted position of the focusser. So it is possible to push the focusser to far into the tube, until the rack and pinion gearing unscrews and the fucousser can fall into the tube!
I will make a small 3D-printed washer, to avoid this.
Anyhow, good scope! And I hope I can get my first images soon!
