Opinion of Celestron Ultima 11

What are your opinions of the Celstron Ultima 11?

How are the optics?

Is it too big to be transportable by one person?

How is it for astrophotography? Would a G-11 be more solid?

Saw one for sale for $1500 and was wondering if that is the going price for these?

Thanks

Mike

A friend of mine has often set up and taken down a C11/G-11 combo.

She's about 5'1 and has grey hair.

Once assembled, however, the scope stays right where it is. (She's a tough cookie, but she aint crazy!)

I'd go with the G-11, myself, but many prefer the fork.

Both C11 *and* G-11 for $1500? Sounds plenty fair to me.

Best wishes.
