Very nice, I used to use something similar for target shooting, years ago. I especially like that the handheld one looks like a prop from a '50s sci-fi film.
Hi all
I love optical things and put a £155 bid on this Opticron HR80 today, Won it after a closing flurry for £133 +P&P, It has the adapter to fit a camera to it too!
I've a few more of these and hand held scopes plus binoculars!
A handheld and a tabletop scope
Looking forward to getting this and having a play with the new one!

Looks good! My current problem is that the planets only come out to play really late (early), and that they are merely skimming the horizon. (And I've been needing to go to bed at sunset and get up at sunrise because of work, so I can't bicycle out in the middle of the night to some place more open.)
Best wishes,
Bob
That looks tasty John.
Cheers,
Neil.
