Achromat 102f6

Picture
The Achro 102f6 was the first in a series of Burgess Optical achro refractors. The OTA is shown on a photo tripod and head with the SWA 38 EP. What looks like a bite out of the focuser end of the scope is actually a Burgess Optical red dot finder, which, being black, blends into the night background.
