C11 F10 or Meade LX 90 ACf F10.Posted By Gabriel Prieto |
I would say the Meade is the better option. Even though your plan is only visual observing, the coma correcting ability of the LX90 will making viewing more pleasant. I used to have a C9.25 and the aberrations at the edge of the FOV was apparent to me.
I also feel that overall, the construction of the Meade SCTs is better and sturdier that the C-series scopes.
Need to keep in mind that scopes are hard to find right now and with Orion having bought out Meade, its hard to tell when they'll start production up again. So regardless of the brand you decide on, looking for used may well be the only way to get one.
